Recently: Quantitative Finance Books

My Life as a Quant For those considering jobs as Quants, this memoir leaves you with plenty of inspiration, but little practical insight. |

Statistical Arbitrage A decent numerical guide to the guiding principles behind stat arb. Very similar to other Wiley Finance books. |

The (Mis) Behavior of Markets Mandelbrot—without question—is one of the most influential, yet under-appreciated figures in complexity, math, and finance. This book should be required reading for any risk manager, trader, or economist. |
