Finance in a Nutshell: A no-nonsense companion to the tools and techniques of finance

Product Details

No other book is a comprehensive toolkit of financial issues, instructive, and so easy to read, all at the same time – this is an easy-to-read guide to the hard-to-understand stuff of business finance.

•  The author regularly gives talks, seminars, and courses for executives and is very aware of their lack of understanding (or their inability to remember) simple but key financial concepts and tools. He is continually asked to recommend a simple book that helps them to refresh key financial concepts and tools. 
• Self-contained: Other than some elementary algebra, no other previous knowledge will be necessary to understand the concepts discussed.
• Comprehensive: It will contain most or all topics, concepts, and tools that executives can easily forget, find hard to understand, and/or would like to know more about.
• Simple and easy to read: Many well-educated executives have all but forgotten their finance and are regularly put off by books that are far more academic than they need. This book will be written in a simple and conversational style.
• Concise with short chapters throughout: This is critical as many executives are put off by long books or never ending chapters.
• Essential elementary theory and many real-world examples. All concepts and tools will be illustrated with catchy and factual examples.
• Excel: Spreadsheets have become an inseparable part of working in Finance and this book will show readers how to use Excel to simplify their work.
• Test Yourself: problems with worked numerical solutions throughout.

Customer Reviews ::

This book: An Unplugged Version of Finances - Juan C. Patiño Peralta - Cidra, PR Puerto Rico
I hope that any of my finance professors find and read this review at least until I finish my MBA. :) Why? Well because this book fills a lot of gaps that most finance books or finance professors never fill. Finance can be a scary subject but with this book is like discovering the myth behind the terrible Wizard of OZ. Remember the movie?

This author really knows how to transform the most complex subject into a pleasurable walk in the park. This book is a perfect complement for your "academic" textbook. When the "academic" textbook fails to clear out the jargon, this book disentangles the mess made up by the "academic tone". If you are studying a BBA or an MBA in Finances this book fits perfectly beside the large and boring class "tome". With this book you will really learn about finances. Sorry Profs...
