Powerful tools needed for financial math

Introduction to Financial Math is probably one of the best written, easy to understand, and fun to read math textbook out there! Four years ago, I joined an investment bank and was required to review the Adkins & Matchett's Financial Business Box. Having come from a non quant background, I was quite nervous. This book definitely put me on ease! It's easy to understand, has tons of problem sets, and most importantly isn't boring to read (when was the last time you read that about a math book?)Now, I am going to Business School and will review all this material again. Without question, this book provides you with all the necessary tools needed in finance.

Easy to learn

This would be a good book for new people to the world of finance.One user wrote that the 17BII and the 19BII are not financial calculators, he is really wrong, and should contact Hewlett Packard if he thinks that the 2 calculators are not financial calculators.Back to the book, if you are new to world of finance or just taking an into class, this book would be a very helpful learning tool.

Good introductory text to the financial markets

Solid intro to capital markets financial math - fun to do and lighthearted.
