Title: Interesting topics and people, but no follow through...
Review: This books starts off great as we learn about an intense chaos theory and neural net-based prediction / pattern recognition and forecasting model that has beaten the stock market for a million. Wow, that's cool, let's learn more about it...The book is filled more with details about the Santa Fe landscape at dusk, and what each character did when they were boy geniuses at age 5 than what was most interesting; the models and their learning mechanism. The book does introduce us to some interesting characters that you might hear about in today's tech world, but the lack of focus on either the characters or the model was a bit annoying. There is also no real data about the P/L, ROI, or other tangible results as to whether this or one of the many other systems built by earlier pioneers actually made any real profit.
