Review: Testo universitario - Ottimo testo
Review: A book every economist should read - B. Mandelbrot tears down the whole house of classic economy, showing how it stands on wrong fundaments. Then goes on suggesting alternative foundations. I do hope someone is working on building an alternative edifice on this basis. There's a prophetic passage at some point: when describing how the random variables in economic are far from memoryless, an old trader who lived through Black Friday and the Great Depression is quoted saying that once his generation will be gone, the caution they had will also disappear from Wall Street. This was written well before 2008.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like an earthquake to wake Wall Street up from sleep
*by P***A on 7 October 2023*

I couldn’t read this book in a single sitting; not even a few chapters went by before I had to keep it down and vent anger at 2 things: 1. The ignoramuses who founded MPT, CAPM, and Black-Scholes, sure, but even more us, the modern practitioner who continues to use these models (I happen to be another unfortunate victim of years wasted learning modern finance in college and afterwards). Not a page will go by when you think how different the world would be if Bachelier’s work had remained undiscovered. 2. The fact that this book has been lying on my desk for 11 YEARS, unread. I first found Mandelbrot when I was 19, a student of accounting and finance. Maybe it was the hormones of youth, or my lack of comprehension skills that I never completed reading it. Memories of the jagged graphs in the book luckily brought me back to it. This is mandatory reading for everyone who has a bank account.
