3. 《快閃小子》 作者:邁克爾·劉易斯
Flash Boys by Michael Lewis
Everdeen Mason: The book is about the stock market – I think the author has done a couple books about that – and it’s particularly about a young guy who works for a Canadian trading firm, and he discovers the world of high frequency trading and how that allows traders to prey on innocents. Right now he’s trying to rally and get people to start their own stock market to stop this from happening. I like how it’s written. Lewis takes something that could be a dry subject and makes it really punchy, and he describes the characters in really fun ways.
推薦人埃弗丁·梅森(Everdeen Mason):這本書是關(guān)于股票市場的,我想作者已經(jīng)寫了不少關(guān)于這個主題的書。這本書的主角是一個在加拿大貿(mào)易公司工作的年輕人。他發(fā)現(xiàn)了高頻交易現(xiàn)象背后存在的問題,也看到了高頻交易者如何從公眾手中快速賺取暴利。于是,他開始盡自己的努力幫助大家成立自己的股票市場,與高頻交易者抗衡。我喜歡這樣的寫法。劉易斯把一個枯燥無味的話題變得強而有力,而且他筆下的人物都刻畫得非常有趣。
