Bonds and Bond Derivatives

Rating:
Summary: Good overview for beginners
Review: This book gives a very good review for beginners investing in the US bond market only. If you are a professional it is more a dictionnary, it doesn't analyse properly instruments. I would like to finally see an author able to understand that a bond is a bond, and a book like that should focus on this and not to give us a extensive listing of all US bonds in the market ....Second USA are not anymore the only financial market in the world : so "International" chapter should be at least as important as the rest of the exercise...
