As it happens, I bought the book recently, looking for Quasar references...

Well well. I used to work with James in the early 90's, when we were both in the Capital Markets operation of a major bank. At that time he was trading Emerging Market debt. He's gone through a bit of a career change since then!

Very interesting John, many thanks for the links. I was intrigued to learn that Smiths 'invented' the ATM, having worked for a clearing bank for many years that came as quite a surprise.

Not only the ATM but also. the idea of the PIN number.
