5.0 out of 5 stars
The Bible for professional money managers,
By Scott Frush (Detroit, Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (The Dryden Press Series in Finance) (Hardcover)
I have read this book for my CFA review studies and for a security analysis class I took at the University of Notre Dame taught by Professor Reilly. This book is a must for those seeking a career in money management or those seeking to become highly educated on the topic. Extremely well conceived and written. Moreover, the book doesn't exclude anything. Topics range from Options & Futures to Top-Down investment analysis. Regarded by investment professionals as the definitive source on the subject. Written for the higher educated reader in mind.

This is the book for CFA preparation,
By swarrick@cybertours.com (The great state of Maine) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (The Dryden Press Series in Finance) (Hardcover)
OK -- so you want to be a CFA. Then you probably will need to buy this book and you might even be told where to get it. Maybe you don't want to be a CFA -- then you will find that out reading this book. The point is -- this book covers the fundamentals of investing from a professional institutional investor's framework (or an MBA in finance student) and does a very good job of it -which is why this has been (and probably still is) a required text.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Not a book for the ordinary investor.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (The Dryden Press Series in Finance) (Hardcover)
I read this book from cover to cover and although it was pretty complete, it was also somewhat complicated and very dry. This is more of a college text, and benefits individuals best with the addition of instruction. Furthermore, This book is more for the person with a background in economics and finance.
