Great book, written by practitioner
Although the book is more than 10yrs old, it still provides a great overview of the systems and algorithms used in the industry today. Highly recommend for anyone interested in electronic equities trading.
S**.
Too many references
It's really annoying to read all those references embedded in the text. The author looks like a student who gets a point for each reference in this dissertation. Otherwise the content is good.

I think this attempt to cover vast area of knowledge made this book difficult to read and also editorial team I think have done a poor job by repeating the same topics throughout the book
Author tries to cover lots of area, starting from the birth of electronic trading to the latest applications of AI in trading. I think this attempt to cover vast area of knowledge made this book difficult to read and also editorial team I think have done a poor job by repeating the same topics throughout the book. Author being a technologist I was expecting bit more meaty treatment of trading algorithms (for e.g with pseudo code of VWAP , POV etc) but none was provided. No good background or intuition was given to help to understand various mathematical equations in many chapters. Overall it may serve as a good book for someone starting in this field but for any serious enthusiast lack enough technical depth or the rigor you expect from a 550+ page technical book.

Decent overview, very verbose
A decent overview of execution algos, but overall very verbose. For deeper technical books check Alvaro Cartea's or Oliver Gueant's book.
