Title: A disappointment
Review: A deeply disappointing book that is for the most part worthless. The core text is less than 200 pages of fairly large print, padded out with a glossary that defines such terms as "derivative", "equity" and "exchange". Except for the first chapter the book is an introduction to software and product management with little or no mention of its applications to financial operations. There is no mention of ATSs, ECNs, automated trading, let alone direct market access or algorithmic trading. Even basic topics such as straight-through processing are only talked about in the most cursory of fashion. I could not recommend this book to anyone.
