From the Inside Flap
"If you're looking to take advantage of the performance benefit from calling C/C++ code from Excel then this book should be the first and last one that you buy. For the second edition Steve has catalogued the changes needed to work with Excel 2007 and given new examples covering the SABR stochastic volatility model and CMS derivative pricing." - Dr. Mike Staunton, London Business School, Wilmott columnist

"This book is for anyone who wants to do any application development in Excel. Even for an old hand at Excel development such as myself, a brief skim through reveals valuable nuggets of information. Delving deeper into the text, richer veins are easily found. This book is destined to become an essential reference on Excel development."
—Dr. Les Clew low, Principal, Lucama Group Ltd

"Programming Excel add-ins using the C API can be complex and difficult. Steve has done a masterful job of demystifying the process. After reading this book you’ll be creating XLLs for all purposes with complete confidence. Highly recommended."
—Rob Bovey, MCSE, MCSD, Excel MVP, President, Application Professionals

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what the title says it is, June 21, 2009
This book might qualify for the "Most Specific Title" award, but the book is exactly what it claims to be. A guide to developing financial applications using excel add-ins written in C/C++.

This book's target audience is someone familiar both with C/C++ as well as Excel -- not a beginner in either. Additionally, this book is not intended to be a reference for either the language or the application, but is instead a course in developing add-ins for Excel using C++. If this is what you're looking to do, this is the book you need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Only choice, March 14, 2009
By Dimitri Shvorob (Nashville, Tennessee) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book does not have any competition, does it? I am grateful to the author, but think that one could do a better job presenting the material.

If you have not heard of XLW, do try it out first.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many details, hard to read / use, February 14, 2009
Very complete, but hard to read/follow...
I'm an experienced programmer but only starting with Excel programming so maybe that's why...

Also quite expensive, but this seems to be the rule with Finance related books.
