"What impresses me about this textbook is its focus on engaging the student in the learning process. Some textbooks are more like reference material, but this textbook 1) emphasizes interpretation of concepts to facilitate student comprehension, 2) concisely focuses on the main issues and avoids unnecessary tangents that can derail students, and 3) incorporates current topics that motivate student interest in investments. Understanding Investments should definitely be considered by professors for their students in investments courses."
-- Anna Martin, Alois J. Theis Endowed Chair and Professor of Finance Department of Economics and Finance, Peter J. Tobin College of Business, St. John's University
"This new textbook "Understanding Investments" is coming at the perfect time to fill a void in the literature. Dr. Laopodis has done an outstanding job in presenting the subject from the Economics science point of view. Rather than boring the students with sterile math, he engages them with his intuitive and practical approach and the natural way in which he links economic theory and investments. Overall, an excellent textbook with many unique features that should make learning a pleasant and lasting experience."
-- Dr. Gregory Koutmos, Gerald M. Levin Professor of Finance and Graduate Finance Programs Coordinator, Fairfield University, Dolan School of Business
