Key Financial Instruments Reviews
It is sad to say that many books on the market that deal with derivatives are either overwhelmingly dull or over-whelmingly complex... Warren Edwardes' book strives to break with this tradition - and succeeds... His secret is simplicity. Key Financial Instruments is neither over long nor over complex. Running through the book is an unmistakable underlying sense of humour. In addition, Edwardes always grounds his text in reality.- FOW, November 2001
