Very simple approach to complex concept. This book was very useful for me when I studied the topics in training courses. I would recommend this book to amateur investors or as a supplement to a principles of finance course.

I have known Scott for years. Aside from a few typos (hey it happens), he has done a good job at capturing the basic principles of the commodity markets.

The title is misleading, it is really about Futures and Futures Options.
