WILEY Fractal Market Analysis: Applying Chaos Theory to Investment and Economics

Was one of the first records I know of an attempt to move away from the limitations that linear statistics has upon research in the social sciences and the complexity to encapsulate the "motivation" and dynamics within these strongly endogenous systems. Unfortunately, it is a fist theoretical approach and offers little practical application within research methods, hence a 4 star not 5.

I call it my market bible. I love this book. It is an easy read with easy applications. I must say I am manic. This is one of the reasons I find math so beautiful. There is still a long ways to go for mathematics and I truly want to be a part of additions to dynamical systems.

en complément des autres livres de Peters, celui-ci fait le lien entre théorie du chaos (en fait utilisation de la théorie des systèmes dynamiques complexes) et la difficulté des approches classiques en économie et finance. ceci permet de comprendre les paradoxes rencontrés dans l'utilisation des outils traditionnels de statistiques.

Brief introduction to terminology, and is great for interested readers outside finance sector to learn about classical market models, albeit man-made, misleading, or only economic academic favored "models". This book tries to made market research more scientific, using re-scaled range analysis in hydrology of Richardson.

A great book! Highly recommended. Reading this book opened my eyes to completely new territory. This will greatly benefit me professionally and intellectually.
