It is light

By Thriftbooks.com User, May 12, 1998

Professor Bodie and Merton did devote this book for readers. Reading this book is like having Bodie and Merton sitting in front you, smiling and answering every naive question with patience. I am lucky to have read the preliminary edition. And I am eager to see the first edition of it ASAP. This is a must for everyone who is interested in finance.
