poorly written, 2007-05-16
This book is an introduction to investing in corporate restructuring. Unfortunately, it is very flabby and poorly written, much less helpful than the insultingly titled but brilliant book by Joel Greenblatt "You can be a stock market genius." Go to pages 67-69 and you will see photocopies of price lists and stock charts taking up two full pages. This is typical of the padding that makes up too much of this book. Leave this one alone.

Risk Arbitrage Analysis Framework, 2005-08-09
This book outlines a solid framework to assess risk arbitrage opportunities. The author describes types of transactions and the elements of return, risk, and probability to systematically analyze a deal. A number of useful formulas are included. However, a more thorough discussion on collar deals would be helpful.

Good Intro Book, 2002-03-08
As value investor, this book provides a good but simple understanding of what RA is. His experience in the industry is more interesting as others have noted. This book provides conceptual issues that can be applied to options, etc. WITHOUT knowing all these greek letters like delta and gamma. Arbitrage is about common sense, and if you rely on greek letters to support your decision, you will be disappointed.
