The Evolution of Portfolio Optimization

I got pretty interested in evolutionary algorithms. I started reading papers about portfolio optimization which is, if you think about it's very similar to sports betting so like when you're betting on games you're choosing the, you know, optimal members of your portfolio basically. So I wrote a email to Dave Rankin at pragmatic programmers pragmatic bookshelf. Would you guys be interested in taking a proposal? And then I ended up writing the book and the rest as they say is history.
