I may be biased because the author is my professor...,

This review is from: Bonds and Bond Derivatives (Paperback)
...but the book isn't anything special. I feel wikipedia could do a better job. Not only the book, but the homework problems and the provided solutions (although occasionally detailed, these solutions are typically just the final answer) aren't very helpful to solidifying any concepts. Simply put -- there's got to be a better book that briefly reviews these same topics in a more beneficial way. I think this book and it's presentation style are simply too outdated.

This review is from: Bonds and Bond Derivatives (Science Biographies) (Hardcover)
This book gives a very good review for beginners investing in the US bond market only. If you are a professional it is more a dictionnary, it doesn't analyse properly instruments. I would like to finally see an author able to understand that a bond is a bond, and a book like that should focus on this and not to give us a extensive listing of all US bonds in the market ....Second USA are not anymore the only financial market in the world : so "International" chapter should be at least as important as the rest of the exercise...
