Summary: Not Perfect, But Very Useful
Review: When I first got into the financial field many years ago, I kept a copy of this book (an earlier edition) close at hand at all times. As I read The Wall Street Journal and Business Week, this book proved indispensible to help me understand concepts and jargon. Today, it is dog-eared, wrinkled and dirty, but I still turn to it occasionally. Yes, some of the definitions are outdated or incomplete. Yes, some terms are missing. But this is the best dictionary of financial terms I've ever seen, and I recommend it to anyone who needs an easy-to-use reference guide.

Summary: Great for all people!
Review: Whether you are a finance student, busienss student, professional financier, or have any level of involvement in finance, then this book is my #1 recommendation for you!Don't you sometimes run into a term that you have no idea what it means? Or a term that you've heard before but can't put your finger on its exact meaning? What about the times that you argued with a friend or a colleague about the exact meaning of a financial term? Even better, don't you enjoy it when you introduce a new term to your friends and come out as the guy who knows about finance more than they do? If you answered yes to any of those questions then this book is for you. Enough said :)
