Exercises is the highlight of the book. It made many points much clearer.
Actually I did not find mistakes the previous review mentions.
I’d like to see more books from this author.

John Wiley & co owes me a couple of pages full of errata or, at least, my money back. (I note there are, at this time, 23 used or new copies of this book)
Books on options strategy and management with plenty of FX examples are few and far between. The only thing good about this book is that the chapters are bite-size. I’m only about half-way thru the book, but if I can expect a similar number of errors for the rest, then shame on John Wiley for allowing this book to publish before extensive editing.
Two handfuls of errors may not be much, but 79.95 is a lot to pay. Lucky for me I have a pretty strong grasp of the basics, but what if a beginner interbank trader got a hold of this book?
It’s surprising that someone of Nassim Taleb’s eminence would lend his name in editorial reviews of this book.

It’s always refreshing to find a book written by a trader! Most of us in the industry have too many books authored by academics who have never managed risk for a living. This book would be very helpful for beginners looking to get into trading. It’s a nice complement to find a text that can go beyond theoretical pricing mechanics and give you a feel for the market. Nice bite size chapters, good ideas, practical examples.

I have worked at futures market for quite a long time, but until recently options remained a very obscure and complex instrument for me. Some time ago I decided to master option market. So I bought several books on the subject, but none of them was as helpful as the one by Simon Vine. The book is clearly written by a practical expert who knows market realities.
