James Picerno's new book on Quantitative Investment Portfolio Analytics in R is now on my buy list. And it's not just because I have been playing around in quant finance and economics for a few years in R. It's also because James very generously offered a couple years back, an offer I should have taken up, an offer made after I asked a dumb R question by email, to help me with whatever finance-R problems I ran into in the future. Now with the book, it looks like I can bump up my human capital a bit while bumping up his financial capital a bit. A fair value-exchange I think.
