This is the book we can only hope that that every bond rating agency has on its shelf and that everyone in the municipal bond supply chain has on their desk top. Like the previous reviewer said "there is nothing else like this" on the market. In an age of uncertainty you had better do your diligence where it concerns municipal bonds and learn an appreciation for the subtle but important distinctions. This is the most relevant book for our times in the brilliant Fabozzi series.

Great book, exactly what it said it was.
Ordered a new one as it was only $3.00
more that a second hand one. Book came
in the exact time as was noted. Will
buy books from Amazon.com from now on.

I'm enjoying the wealth of information in this book. Basically, it's a collection of essays on various bond topics by experts in the field. As one would expect, the quality varies a bit from chapter to chapter. Of course, it does not include the most recent developments in the field, but it's the most current reference I've found to date.

This is a comprehensive book on bond insurance and hits all the hot topics for the municipal bond investor. Well worth the price. There is no other book like this.

As a financial advisor with UBS in Palo Alto, California I do a lot of municipal bond business. I have found this work to be very insightful and contains lots of detail.
