520 __ |a "The book is designed as a guide to investments for individuals wanting to learn; the presented material is neither too basic nor too advanced. Descriptive material is thoroughly covered; however, equally important, the analytics of investments are presented throughout the discussion to help students reason out investment issues, and thus, be better prepared when making real-world investment decisions. Terminology and trading mechanisms may change, but learning to carefully analyze and evaluate investment opportunities will pay off under any circumstances. The book is written for the first course in investments, generally taught at the junior/senior level. Standard prerequisites include basic accounting, economics, and financial management. A course in statistics is very useful but not absolutely essential. We have sought to minimize formulas and to simplify difficult material, consistent with a presentation of the subject that takes into account current ideas and practices."-- Provided by publisher.
