Most Helpful Customer Reviews   10 of 10 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you ever wanted to now about fixed income!, 26 Jan 2001 By A Customer This review is from: The Handbook of Fixed Income Securities (Hardcover) This book is about the most exhaustive reference upon fixed income securities you are likely to find. Although some might find it difficult to get into the book, it is not necessary to read it all in one go, nor to consult each chapter in order. Each is self contained. For those lacking experience in the field, the first few chapters ease you into how bonds are valued and what kind of varieties they are available in, before tackling more individual issues. If you are either a corporate finance specialist or a student of finance, this single text will be able to cure much of what ails you, and is absolutely indeispensible as a desktop reference.
