5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Return on Investment!, 16 Mar 2002
By A Customer
Very good guide and good value for money. Highly recommended. Covers the fundamentals and the basic principals of Finance in a clear and simplified way, without being too numerical. Money well spent!

Michael, London

1.0 out of 5 stars At least it takes only a week!, 21 Jul 2007
By Mr. Robert Slack (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this as a possible recommendation to students; I teach a course Finance for Non-Fin-Managers on an MBA programme.I cannot see how reading this book would help my students. It is inaccurate in many important places (even allowing for its non-specialist nature) and just plain wrong in others. It explains very little. Anyone who reads this book and feels s/he has moved from ignorance to enlightenment has probably moved only to blissful ignorance!(I mean no offence to those who read it and thought it helpful)

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, 9 April 2008
By Mr. Andrew Wylie "mistertransistor" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have to agree with the reviewer who found this lacking. Really all this teaches you is basic terminology. Explanations are not understandable, and although it's a starting point, it is simply neither clear nor comprehensive enough.
