Customer Reviews

Barebones Basics
I purchased this and the Quantitative Investment Analysis Workbook' and was slighly disappointed. The workbook is good in that it forces you to workout quantitative problems, but the concept discriptions can be oversimplified. Good if you have a good base and want to review quantitative theory, but don't expect to learn these concepts in-depth.
