The best reference for non-option theoretic bond analytics

This book is no walk in the park; it is very detailed and very precise.
This is exactly what you want when using these calculations to analyze investments.
Dragomir's calculations are consistent with the analytics on Bloomberg used by institutional traders and money managers. I refer to it whenever I need a source on the subject of bond calculations.
You will not find a better reference. It is worth every penny and then some.

The author does a great job of covering the basics and bond trading and valuation in a concise and very readable format. There are many long winded books on fixed income that cover these topics exhaustively, but this is the book I find myself returning to when I need an accurate answer quickly.

Finding a single source which contains a clear explanation of all the bond conventions is very difficult. When you need this
book, you really need this book. Thanks Dragomir.
