Simply the Best!
(Toronto, ON Canada) February 6, 2004 - 5.0/5 stars

This is the bible of options and futures markets. It is very well written, clear, and relatively easy to understand.

However, you have to read it carefully as it minces its words. Every sentence is packed with information and is important.

You may find `easier' books, but they will not go the distance. So, save your money and get the best of them all. Risk Magazine lists this book as #4 among most widely cited papers/books between 1988 and 2003. No surprise there!
