Options saw as another class of assets, just like mutual funds, bonds, and stocks. You can purchase options like most other asset classes, by merely using an investment account from a brokerage.

I think this book is slightly a step above beginner level. It claims to be a crash course, and it is. However, the author also presupposes you know a lot of information already. I am not super familiar with options trading so I found myself lost quite a bit. But, the information is well written and seems sound. I think like the author says you will have to practice and constantly reevaluate your plans and strategies because the options market is constantly changing. Overall, a great resource for those semi-informed.
I was expecting a surface explanation of the different methods of trading. What I got was a book that was so detailed I felt in over my head quickly.

It tells of different strategies and even ways of trading in a more volatile market with a little more knowledge and hopefully a bit less risk
