    4 out of 5 stars Solid Introduction.......2004-03-13

    This book is a good introduction to valuation and should be used in conjunction with other books in fixed income. The book references more complex topics that may be explored further in more advanced books. However, the book does a good job of stripping topics to the basic concepts.

    5 out of 5 stars Highly recommended.......1999-05-28

    Fabozzi covers intensely complicated topics and explains areas that even a non finance person like me can grasp with relative ease. If you need to gain knowledge in this area, I urge you to buy this book!

    5 out of 5 stars super book, fun to read.......2002-12-22

    Just entering the business from a EE background so I am reading this book to get down terminology and concepts before reading John C. Hull. At first "selling short" sounded like something shady.

    This book is written in a friendly, interesting style.

    Requires some math background (high school algebra) and basic knowledge of statistics (Gaussian distribution).
    I have been verifying all calculations. For the asking, I have written some programs to automate interest rate calculations and Black-Scholes (...).

    Next I'll write a program to do the work of 100000 stockbrokers in finding and executing arbitrage/reverse arbitrage opportunities.

    This is a good reading for someone with no Futures & Options knowledge. I find it quite useful how the author clearly defines various swaps namely-- Currency, Interest Rates and Energy. However, this book would not cover newer Derivs stuff i.e. Credit Derivatives (though it provides a simple snapshot of CDS and TRS). I commend the author for not taking the GEEK approach.

    4 out of 5 stars Basic and thorough understanding on Derivatives.......2001-07-06

    You may seldom locate a book telling you one of the most practical aspect in recent regime of financial accountng - booking the derivatives. Nevertheless, it spent a few paragraphs together with some examples showing you the booking of three major types of derivatives in the financial market. Other topics also illustrate comprehensively the functioning of the derivatives as well as accompanied with various examples. Had it not been for the limited pages in explaining the booking methodology, it would have been the best derivatives related book that I have met before.

        Book Description

        The concept of opportunity cost, an integral part of classical economic theory, is more than two hundred years old. Yet it is still not fully understood today. This work focuses on opportunity cost as it affects decision making, managing, and business problem solving--where the acceptance of one alternative precludes the acceptance of others. H.G. Heymann and Robert Bloom clarify the issues associated with the opportunity cost principle, the measurement of opportunity costs, and its practical applications in the areas of finance and accounting. By providing numerous examples to demonstrate these specific issues, they make an important, complex economic concept simple to understand. Heymann and Bloom begin their work with simple examples that relate to the opportunity cost principle and introduce the framework in which it has been defined. Following a discussion of basic concepts, applications in economic theory, finance, and accounting are reviewed and analyzed, and increasingly complex, multidimensional, and interdependent problem statements are considered in relation to practical management procedures. The book's interdisciplinary approach addresses a number of issues related to opportunity cost, including the environment in which theories, models, and concepts are developed; the multiple dimensions of problem situations faced by practicing managers; various interpretations of opportunity cost in economic theory; and the relevance of opportunity cost in computer-aided Decision Support Systems. Written in a way that even people with a minimum background in economics can understand, Opportunity Cost in Finance and Accounting will enhance the reader's appreciation of the many complex issues that relate to organizational management, financial decision making, valuation, and opportunity costs. It will be a valuable supplementary text for courses in business and public administration, as well as for developmental seminars for professionals in finance, investment, and accounting. It will also be a significant addition to public, academic, and business libraries.

          From the supplier: There was no comprehensive tax reform bill in 1996, but a number of bills passed in 1996 contain substantial tax provisions affecting income taxation of individuals. Tax changes for medical expenses include the creation of medical savings accounts and exclusion of long-term care insurance and accelerated death benefits. Tax credits are available for adoption expenses up to $5,000 per child. Other tax law changes addressed personal injury damages exclusion, worker classification, earned income tax credits, gifts of appreciated property to foundations and state taxation of nonresidents.

                      U.S. crime rates fell for most of the 1990s, but sociologists warn that these downward trends cannot continue indefinitely. The authors in this volume examine the factors that influence crime-focusing on the economy, prison and sentencing policies, and gun control laws-in the following chapters: What Causes Crime? Does Controlling Guns Control Crime? How Should the Criminal Justice System Be Reformed? How Can Crime Be Reduced?
