ISE Investments

Was surprised the boom was that heavy! For that price! Amazing! I hope I Get an A+

Undoubtedly a very good introduction to investments. It was a required text for introductory investments course but the book went beyond. Lucidly written and concepts are explained clearly. The accompanying excel sheets makes it practical and helps to solidify the learning

Good

Look closely at the red print across the top of the bookcover in this listing: "This International Student Edition is for use outside of the U.S." Interesting that Amazon is selling this in the U.S. How many U.S. buyers are going to take it "outside the U.S." before using it?It's hard for us consumers to figure this stuff out. Is McGraw Hill being ripped off here? On the other hand, why are our homemade books cheaper for outsider use? Is McGraw Hill actually the perp, finding a way to increase sales volume? I used to think Amazon might care if some sort of ethics violation was in play, but I won't waste my time.BTW, it's a good book so far: well written overall and covers a lot of ground. McGraw Hill seems to have done a good job of editing (with the exception of "comprised of ..." on page 14). Most of the explanations are clear and to the point. Every now and then, after detailed explanations of entry-level stuff, they throw in higher-level jargon without definition, much less explanation. I guess that's par for the course. Were it not for the "International" label, I'd give it four or five stars.

What I liked is how it is written. Easy to understand for an intermediate learner

Product in good condition, better than I thought it would be. Thanks!

Comprehensive text, good for someone looking to learn about investing in-depth.

This is an international version and we had to return it because you cannot use it in the United States college courses.
