"Tim Weithers starts by telling the reader that foreign exchange is not
difficult, just confusing, but Foreign Exchange: A Practical Guide to
the FX Markets proves that money is much more exciting than anything it
buys. This useful book is a whirlwind tour of the world's largest
market, and the tour guide is an expert storyteller, inserting numerous
fascinating insights and quirky facts throughout the book."
-John R. Taylor, Chairman, CEO and CIO, FX Concepts
"The book reflects the author's doctorate from the University of
Chicago, several years' experience as an economics professor, and, most
recently, a very successful decade as an executive at a huge
international bank. These fundamental ingredients are seasoned with bits
of wisdom and experience. What results is a very tasty intellectual
stew."
-Professor Jack Clark Francis, PhD, Professor of Economics and Finance,
Bernard Baruch College
"In this book, Tim Weithers clearly explains a very complicated subject.
Foreign Exchange is full of jargon and conventions that make it very
hard for non-professionals to gain a good understanding. Weither's book
is a must for any student or professional who wants to learn the secrets
of FX."
-Niels O. Nygaard, Director of Financial Mathematics, The University of
Chicago
"An excellent text for students and practitioners who want to become
acquainted with the arcane world of the foreign exchange market."
-David DeRosa, PhD, founder, DeRosa Research and Trading, Inc., and
Adjunct Professor of Finance, Yale School of Management
"Tim Weithers provides a superb introduction to the arcana of foreign
exchangemarkets. While primarily intended for practitioners, the book
would be a valuable introduction for students with some knowledge of
economics. The text is exceptionally clear with numeric examples and
exercises that reinforce concepts. Frequent references are made to the
economic theory behind the trading practices."
