Emanuel Derman was one of the first physicists to move to Wall Street, and his career paralleled the growth of quantitative trading over the past twenty years. In My Life as a Quant, he traces his transformation from ambitious young scientist to managing director and head of the renowned Quantitative Strategies group at Goldman, Sachs & Co.
Derman’s tale recounts his adventures with quants, traders and other high fliers on Wall Street as he became the best-known quant in the business. He describes the struggles of research and his interactions with an assorted cast of famous scientists. He relates his impressions of some of the most creative minds on Wall Street, including Fischer Black, with whom he collaborated on the widely used Black-Derman-Toy model of interest rates. Throughout his story he reflects on the appropriate way to apply the refined methods of physics to the hurly-burly world of markets and the people that inhabit them.

读后感
看之前格外留心了下副标题：华尔街的数量金融大师。在我印象里，凡是和“华尔街”“大师”沾边的传记都无外乎一种调调。老子（第三人称的话就是某某）有多么多么牛逼，没这种概念的去看看《货币战争》。 不过，我错了。 德曼的这本自传写的很诚实，很多大牌明星级的教授和华...
评分16,17岁的理想是当爱因斯坦;21岁觉得做费曼也不错;24岁的时候觉得做李政道就好了;做博士后的时候开始嫉妒officemate被邀请去做seminar。 在做了几年博士后仍然没有理想的faculty机会之后，步入工业界。先在AT&T实验室工作了几年，然后进入金融工程领域。一做十六年，做到高盛Q...
评分金融游戏的数字陷阱 华尔街从来不缺聪明人。但时代在变，老牌的做法已经落伍，宽客如今成为风头最劲的一群人。 上世纪80年代，华尔街是沃伦巴菲特等价值投资者的天下，对冲基金则在上世纪90年代赢得无数眼球，如今，低调神秘的宽客则日渐浮出水面，步入台前。宽客来...
评分德曼的这本回忆录我认认真真读了两遍，就“诚意”这点而言，绝对配的上五星。多数物理学家和金融学家的回忆录都以记述自己的才能和奋斗为纲，展现的是“姿态”。而双栖天才德曼却另辟蹊径，展示的是“心态”。而他本人的心路历程正是本书的诚意和亮点所在。 从少年恃才自傲的轻...

一个有趣骄傲又有智慧的人
评分还不错的故事。感觉物理学比我一直以为的还有趣。而作者及其同时代的很多人的转行经历，也十分的有意思。
评分An authentic autobiography by an experienced quant on Wall Street. Formerly a PhD in particle physics, Derman's combined quality of academia and business had served him well. Listed and narrated, the glorious epic of Columbia's Physics Department, filled with Noble Prize receivers, gives us a glimpse of a post-doc life surrounded by geniuses.
评分看他的经历和所做，就知道这个人在金融界一定是个top的人物，然而书中没有一处显示自己成绩的地方，全是自己一路走来的心境，多半是自然，多半是随缘，没有太多的刻意设计，没有多么虚的我要成为top，一切水到渠成
评分前面挺精彩的，后面讲述金融工程的内容，有些地方比较枯燥
