1: Money & Banking
Extremely useful for Economic and Finance Majors/pursuers. I call it a Pre-Corporate Finance book. It teaches you the basics in financial instruments such as valuing bonds, portfolio theories, foreign exchange market, and also how to read the WSJ (Wall Street Journal).

This is a great option for those being introduced in the Financial Markets Area. Very complete and easy to understand. Great Choice!

4: great book for finance/money
I am a student in Romania and I always feel uncomfortable about spending the 20 dolars needed to pay for some of the coursebooks that our teachers recommend. I always feel that i'm probably going to toss any coursebooks in the attick once i'm done with it. But after reading a few excerpts from Mishkin's book, I felt like spending six times the amount would be a worthwhile investment. And I have not regretted it since! It is an excellent book for anyone looking to learn more about modern financial systems and finance in general. The fact that makes it such a great book is that mishkin actually wants you to understand what he's taling about by using an accessible vocabulary and lots of examples.

5: buy something else
Well I took the Financial Markets course at my university, both of my professors are very good at conveying information. Then when I read this textbook, man all the things in my head were messed up. This textbook is kind of Reviews of Money, Banking and FN Markets. It never really add more information to your brain if you have already taken couple of FN courses. I do recommend Financial Markets and Institutions by Jeff Madura or Money, Banking and Financial Markets by Stephen Cecchetti. Those guys are easier to read and follow.
