 Good Writing For A Good Author January 3, 2003
I have known Scott for many years and his material keeps getting better and better. I am proud to be a trader right now in NYC and things have gotten rough since 9/11. But this book helped me earn over $500,000 in net worth to this day. I recommend this book to anyone that has ever been interested in the trading enviroment and who wants to make money fast!!!
 Not a futures trading book at all June 11, 2002

To my very surprise, this book is nothing about trading, but the opinion of senior Exchange executives about the future of Exchanges. If you are a floor trader, you might be interested to know what technology, globalization and govt regulations will affect your job. Otherwise, you will find this book of zero value. The title is definitely misleading. It should be management of the futures exchange, categorized under business management.

I would give this book zero stars if I could. There is very little information of any real value. I can't believe I paid good money for this pile of scrap paper.
Very Educational, quick easy reading January 29, 2000

I like the way Scott put this book together. It's easy reading and very educational. The people in this book are truly the people who put futures into play. I really enjoyed Leo Melamed's foreword, and the comments by Hal Hansen.
The Worst Trading Book Ever Written? September 16, 1999
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is lacking in so many areas incuding but not limited to substance, accuracy,interest and relevance.The writing and editing are laughable(check out the author's comments above)!This book offers compelling proof in one area:The random typing of chimpanzees is rapidly evolving towards Shakespeare!
