Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The book is difficult to understand. Many of the graphs are not clearly labeled or explained. The formulas have random subscripts which are not clearly explained in words. Looks like someone just copy and pasted graphs and spreadsheets from excel and were too lazy to label them clearly. Not organized in easy to understand sections. Overall there are better books for intro to finance.

The market leading Essentials of Investments, 7e by Bodie, Kane and Marcus is an undergraduate textbook on investment analysis, presenting the practical applications of investment theory to convey insights of practical value. The authors have eliminated unnecessary mathematical detail and concentrate on the intuition and insights that will be useful to practitioners throughout their careers as new ideas and challenges emerge from the financial marketplace. Essentials maintains the theme of asset allocation (authors discuss asset pricing and trading then apply these theories to portfolio planning in real-world securities markets that are governed by risk/return relationships).
