in summary, we have a handbook with an amazingly wide number of contributors, covering an extensive range of financial technology subjects, in the most absorbing and thought provoking way. It is amazing that this book has come to market at all, and our understanding of the future of our world is well served for the fact that it has done so. (BCS, July 2016)
