This book was NOT EXACTLY what I was looking for, but I must say it got ahold of me from the beginning and never let go till the end. And in the process, I'm pretty sure I picked up some valuable wisdom whilst enjoying the reading greatly. Let's just say it up front: the guy can write...way better than most, and way better than I really expected of a physicist. I don't know why, but I expected it to be quite dry and....scientific. To be sure, he does lay in some physicist theory stuff, but it never drags (not saying I always followed it all to a T, just saying it was all readable and interesting). Funny, but my only other experience with physics was a lone intro physics course in college, and remember to this day it was the only course I took in which the class burst into spontaneous applause at the final day wrap-up. Maybe physics DOES rock, I don't know. Anyway, this book is more than physics, it' s partly the guy's life, very poignant, and downright touching at times (I think I even feel his deep affection and respect for Fischer Black, who I had never heard of before). And there was plenty of humor in the book as well, subtle and succinct, and in just the right places to make it all so relatable. Even though my primary purpose was to get some insight on financial markets and how they work, by about a quarter way through the book, I had concluded I probably wasn't going to get that. But I was enjoying it so much, I read on anyway. (Good books are not that easy to come by, so take them when they come). And in the end I think I DID get some quite valuable insight on the financial markets, insight that I expect will help me in navigating that tricky world. Particularly, I like his comparisons of the creation of theories in physics, which deal with the immutable laws of the universe, with the creation of theories in finance, which deal with the....let's just say VERY mutable laws of human behavior. If you can get that one little dichotomy down in your thinking about your financial theories, you'll probably save yourself a lot of grief. All in all, a very good read, for your brain AND your heart.
