This is a great finance textbook. I dreaded this course but the moment I started working through the material in the book it all came together. Very well written and excellent explanations of concepts that seem intimidating but once broken down are quite simple and straight-forward. The text actually made learning finance principles enjoyable and very interesting and applicable to daily life and business.
Great textbook

I'm usually very critical of textbooks, but this one reads extremely well. It is clearly organized and progresses in a logical manner. The subject material is inherently difficult, but the authors do an excellent job explaining both the common-sense and mathematical basis for each topic. I have no formal background in finance or accounting but I'm doing well in a 300-level course with just this book to thank. Anyone who wants to educate themselves about stock/bond values, interpreting balance sheets, etc, would benefit greatly from this book.
