Review: Perfect - Book arrived as described
Review: Comprehensive book - I was assigned this textbook as part of a CFP certification course at Berkeley. I found it to be very comprehensive in its coverage. I was surprised at the number of mistakes (several examples list incorrect answers) and at how the authors often used only a formula to explain a concept, rather than prose followed by a formula. If you have a strong grasp of calculus this will not bother you, but it's been a few decades since I had seen some of these concepts, so I was slightly miffed. All in all, this book is worthwhile. Hopefully they will correct the errors in subsequent printings.

### ⭐⭐ Poorly Written Textbook
*by V***S on June 5, 2024*

This is probably one of the worst textbooks I’ve ever read. I bought this textbook for my investment management course and after getting about halfway through the book I can say that the writing is insanely hard to follow. Spelling out math equations in sentences instead of showing the math, referencing formulas from 10 pages ago, etc. I understand the material is dense but even my professor has a hard time reading through this book.
