Excelent book
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book after listening to the free online course by Robert Shiller. The topics are explained thoroughly and it gives you a clear picture of finance. Despite what other comments say, the text is not difficult for understanding. Though I am in high school and English is my second language, I found it quite easy to read and comprehend. The hardcover edition is fine, the only problem is the index, which does not include many terms and isn't really helpful. I would recommend this book to everyone. ... show more

Easy read textbook
Format: Hardcover
Easy read textbook. Provides a wealth of knowledge. Unfortunately the only thing it is lacking is questions with answers to the problems. Questions are an excellent way to test if the concepts in the material was understood.
