[Paul Bard · Rating 3 out of 5]

I waver between three and four stars Here's why:

- The first six chapters, pages 1-147, are excellent and a good study summary of the field for beginners.
- But the remaining book is good information if you are American.

Finally, the book has chapters on all the major markets except Australia and the Middle East. This omission I think loses it a star.

The book is US-centered, and not so useful outside the US. But the opening 6 chapters are superb. Worth a read.
