Introduction to Financial Technology (Complete Technology Guides for Financial Services) (9780123704788): Roy S. Freedman: Books. Approaching a new highly abstract and complex technical subject, especially as a student, has much in common with the mountaineer's approach to amountain: 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.-- Raymond Nolting, Executive Project Manager/Senior Business Analyst, B-Trade Services L.L.C./Division of the Bank of New YorkOne 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
