This is DEFINITELY not one you just listen to once and have internalized. Even with the course I took this summer, there is so much in here that will require review, but I'm glad I plodded through it. I actually enjoy finance more than I expected to, and the format where they do a section on each learning objective within a chapter, then give a summary at the end, followed by discussion questions, works out well.

Difficult subject, but one so essential for strategic choices that I won't regret buying similar book and self-studying the subject at some point. Probably not the best book on the subject, but it was in audiobook format and thus easy to go through.
