Book Reviews of Investments with S&P bind-in card
Book Review: Bozos and the market
Summary: 5 Stars
This review has 3 purposes:
1. This is a great book for learning about investments. I read somewhere that this book teaches you about investments "without the math". There is math in this book. If you want a "math lite" reference, try one of the Dummies, Idiots or Totally Confused series.
2. This book is on the syllabus for a professional exam (CAS); however, the CAS syllabus specifies a 2008 printing. This book shows a 2006 printing, but when it arrived, it was the 2008 version of the 7th edition. I don't know if there was a 2006 printing or if Amazon just has it wrong.
3. Finally, this review is to offset the two bozos who left reviews before me. THIS IS NOT HOW YOU CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE! This is a forum to let other interested parties know what you thought of the text. If you can't figure that out, you probably won't be able to understand what the text is talking about anyway. (See note 1.)
Summary of Investments with S&P bind-in card
Bodie, Kane, and Marcus? Investments is the leading textbook for the graduate/MBA investments market. It is recognized as the best blend of practical and theoretical coverage, while maintaining an appropriate rigor and clear writing style. Its unifying theme is that security markets are nearly efficient, meaning that most securities are usually priced appropriately given their risk and return attributes. The text places greater emphasis on asset allocation, and offers a much broader and deeper treatment of futures, options, and other derivative security markets than most investment texts.Investing Books
