Book Reviews of Frequently Asked Questions in Quantitative Finance (Wiley Series in Financial Engineering)

Book Review: An excellent reference book, every student, and end user of this area should have this!
Summary: 5 Stars

This FAQ does exactly what it says on the book cover. It explains some of the common questions of Quantitative Finance. What differentiates this from other Quant books is that it gives you the short quick answer to a topic first, then a longer explanation directly afterwards. So if the short answer is sufficient, you stop there with out having to wade thru lots of excess wordage and padded paragraphs, something quantitative finance topics often have in abundance.

A very good read, now you don't often hear that about Quantitative Finance!
