    Description of Investments

    Designed for undergraduate and graduate courses in Investments, this book provides a solid theoretical framework around which to build practical knowledge of securities and securities markets. The authors, including a Nobel Prize winner and a full-time practitioner, offer a balanced presentation of theory and practice as they explain to students the essentials of prominent investment concepts. Just as importantly, they illustrate how those concepts are applied by professional investors. The Sixth Edition distills the growing complexity of the investment environment, enumerating and describing today's various securities and markets in a clear, concise manner and integrating discussions of new investment management techniques.
