Describing the collapse of the subprime mortgage CDO market in 2007, Derman urges readers to stop relying on these financial models where possible, and offers suggestions for mending these models where they might still do some good. This is a fascinating, lyrical, and very human look behind the curtain at the intersection between mathematics and human nature.
