Books Archives - Quantocracy

Below is a list of all of the books written by all of the folks on our quantitative trading blogroll, sorted by Amazon sales rank from most to least popular. I did the legwork for a new page I’m putting together for the site (similar to what we used to have at The Whole Street), and thought it worth sharing.

Biggest non-surprise? Faber is killing it. Biggest surprise? Howard Bandy is killing it almost equally hard. Good stuff gentlemen. Click on the book title to read more at Amazon.
