没有书，只有光盘，但是这本Paperback的书很技术，光盘就留给看得懂的人看把。我还是厚道点：这个光盘基本上就是一整套Quant交易系统的开发源码，架构，还有定价的Algorithm之类的东西；如果有矿工大牛，说不定可以自行开发一套小型的商用系统。如果大家只是想学习金融的，还是别花钱了。

Principles of Quantitative Development is a step by-step-guide to designing, building and modifying a trading platform. Because of the high number of participants in the markets, the high speed and frequency of trades, and the time it takes to set up third party platforms, there is a massive demand for proprietary in-house-built trading systems which can plug in quant models, handle risk management and trade processing functions, but be quickly modified to host new models, change risk parameters etc.The book begins by looking at the need for fully integrated platform designs, addressing the need for speed, business processes and current trends within banking. It then looks at the trade life cycle and its participants, from beginning to end, and then the functions within the front, middle and back office, giving the reader a full understanding and appreciation of the perspectives and needs of each function. The book then moves on to platform design, addressing all the fundamentals of platform design and build, system architectures, and programming languages and design patterns. Finally, the book will focus on some of the more technical aspects of quantitative development and look at traditional and new languages and programs used in modern platform design. The book will be accompanied by an additional CD-ROM, which features a fully working option pricing tool with source code and project building instructions, which will illustrate the design principles discussed, and enable readers to develop a mini-trading platform.
