Modern Portfolio Theory and Investment Analysis - By: , 19 Feb 2003 
This is a good book for someone wanting to get a good understanding of the technical aspects of the portfolio theory. It tends to explain the concepts clearly rather than just putin the techinal formulas & is really good for someone wanting to understand the techinal side of the investment theory without wanting to be bogged down with calculas.
A good all-round review - By: , 02 Aug 2002 Unlike the other review, I found this book very useful although some of the subtletiesin what it was explaining only really came out when I worked through the methodology by handin parallel with the book. However having done that I felt much better informed. In terms of describing the construction of efficient portfolios, it is the best treatment I have seen.

After a careful readthrough of this book, I have come to the conclusion that it is not very educational. The lack of examplesin the book are crusial to the understanding of the important theory, especially within certain areas.
As a overall comment it is not very well written. The language used is cryptic & not very direct & forward. This would otherwise be features that would be preferable for a bookin this caliber, to present something very essetial to finance theory.
