About this audiobook
Much of the stock market trading that occurs today is done with computer servers, completing hundreds of millions of orders in a system known as high-frequency trading. Author Michael Lewis has made this practice the subject of his latest book, Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt. He joins Judy Woodruff for a discussion about Wall Street trading and reform.
