Reviews
Approaching a new highly abstract and complex technical subject, especially as a student, has much in common with the mountaineer's approach
to a
mountain: both present a daunting challenge to be overcome at high cost of effort--we fear for our very survival.
In "Introduction
to Financial Technology", Roy Freedman proves himself a steadfast and expert guide right from the beginning of the journey.
Like a trusty
Sherpa, he does all the heavy lifting for us even in the ever-thinning air of our journey up the steep Himalayan slopes of the financial
and technological abstractions of the modern discipline that is financial technology. All in all, I found Freedman's treatment of the
financial application of computer algorithms and financial technology quite thorough and highly informative and well written.

"One would not
expect a book on financial technology to be so...well...gripping. Freedman provides an interesting survey of the history of financial
technology as well as the technological tools used today. This book is a must read for any true student of the market, especially as
high technology becomes ever more pervasive in the analysis and operation of financial markets."
-- Ben Van Vliet, Associate Director,
M.S. Financial Markets, Center for Financial Markets, Illinois Institute of Technology
