Personal Investment: financial planning in an uncertain world Paperback – 30 March 2010

This book is great.If you would like to know a bit more about finance it could help you understanding some key concepts and ideas.However, i do not thinks this book will be suitable for beginner.Xxx

Quite possibly one of the best books ever written about investing. While not aimed at traders as such, it places the investing environment into its current context, giving readers a much wider appreciation of the obstacles and challenges they are likely to encounter. The turmoil of the last two decades, the role of central banks, the growth of derivatives, and modern portfolio theory are explained in a clear and concise manner. While the book is for sale as a standalone item, it is the text book for an Open University course on investing. The course itself reinforces the themes that run throughout the book.
