Customer Reviews

Just say "nope."2
In this book the author appears to have tried to make people *pay* for a sales demonstration of his products. Better off with Simon Benninga's Financial Modeling in Excel 3rd edition.

A user manual for simulation tools.2
If you are looking for a book to describe and articulate finical modeling, this is not for you. This book has very high level descriptions of many algorithms with screen shot examples of how to use the proprietary trial tools included with the book.

In all, it's a lightweight manual for the author's company's tools. If you want to learn these proprietary tools and include them in your business, then this is a good place to start.
