Good stuff Cutten. Thanks for the links.
Looks like you found a PHD that actually has done his homework

Now **THIS** guy SHOULD be teaching the efficient market
hypothesis class. He has a good understanding of markets
and market players.

Quote from Cutten:

There is one academic who I think has a particularly superior feel for the "real world" issues in the markets, Larry Harris, who was at the University of Southern California: http://www-rcf.usc.edu/~lharris (I believe he now works for the SEC). He is basically one of the few people whose thought I have encountered who shares my view on how markets actually function. Also he mentions poker as an analogy to trading in his papers. Any academic who does that, clearly has his sh*t together. Another admirable quality is extreme concision and clarity. I think most market participants would benefit from reading his output.
