A big disappointment. I would like to see some coverage of the important fixed income pricing models instead of basic introduction. It is a waste of money. Maybe good for people who have no idea about fixed income AND know nothing about asset pricing. The author is an adjunct professor. Ajunct professors are usually people who have very superficial knowledge in the topic. Good books must be written by the good RESEARCHERS in the field.
I decided to discard the book and choose a better one for my students.

This book was very hyped up in the other reviews and I couldn’t wait to start reading it, but was dissapointed. The author has a different approach than Fabozzi, but it just doesn’t work for me. Too many times he makes a statement and then doesn’t justify it or add more color to make it relevant or put it in context. The math is confusing. Sometimes the book does not flow well. Instead of continuing to criticize the book, I’ll recommend the best book I have ever found on the topic: “Fixed Income Analysis” by Frank Fabozzi. This is the book that Frank wrote for the CFA Program and if you read the preface, you’ll know why it is so good.
