Student Use., 2008-05-24
The text book is well written and well organized. One concern is the preface. It depicts a website for the book indicating availability of student resources including an Investment Analysis Calculator. The web site has changed and the publisher has acknowledged that there are no student resources available.

One of the best basic finance textbooks, 2007-12-30
Mayo is a clear writer who has a knack for making this material easy to understand. You may wish to compare to his other ( less expensive) textbooks that are even more basic and understandable. You should also look at the textbooks written by Bodie, Kane and Marcus. These books are somewhat more technical. I guess that most students using any of these books are only buying what is assigned. Mayo is perhaps the easiest to understand.

I have the teacher, 2007-05-03
Great book and great teacher...I won't sell this book because I've learned too much from it and it will help me later on in life I'm sure.

One word.........BORING, 2007-03-09
This is by far the worst business book I have ever owned. I could hardley make it half a page without my mind wandering. It needs more real life examples to make it more appealing and understandable to the layperson.
