Customer Review: Other reviewers have made comments and the list is extensive. I am impressed with the price, and the improvements. we have a book and cd included.

Customer Review: A great book with thoughful summaries and perfectly arranged chapters. The real-life cases make the subject matter much more enjoyable. End-of-chapter sample cases make you think, and the online resources are helpful too.
Customer Review: I read this when it came out and thought it was pretty good. The first half, about how people figured out how probability worked, was really entertaining. The end, about how the geniuses on Wall St. conquered risk, is so wrong it's hilarious. Bernstein is a victim of what Taleb calls the ludic... more info
Customer Review: I was unimpressed with this book. Many in my class struggled because of the way the book was thrown together.

Also, the book is not nearly as expensive as a lot of textbooks, so I feel I'm getting my money's worth... more info

The book was a little longer than it needed to be perhaps, but it included a lot of great personalities and a compelling litigation story. Not courtroom drama, but the entire drama surrounding a huge suit from start to finish. It's an... more info
Customer Review: With my graduate studies winding down, this has to be the worst book I have been forced to buy. Mallor has written a book that has enough volume to last several classes, however, for me, this was for an MBA business law course. At 15+ pounds and 1300 pages, its weildy and gets into way to much... more info
