Very useful manual for practitioners
(Boston) June 5, 2004 - 5.0/5 stars

This is a great manual for market practitioners. It does not use detailed math, does not go into issues of corporate finance.

But it is very easy to follow and it is "complete". More than that, the book is to the point and very clear.

Market professionals will find the examples spread around the book very useful for their daily work. The surprising new book by Nefci which I just got, but did not have time to study in detail, seem to provide all the missing links.

I had used an earlier edition of Hull, and it appears that John Hull adds all the relevant material needed for market finance with each new edition.

In fact I have purchased several books on Mathematical Finance and Derivatives but few of them remain on my desk for future consultation.
