Very strong introduction to banking. Will probably work best for people who are completely new to the financial industry.

I think the first few chapters that speaks about the history and the purpose of banks is excellent. As the book transitions to the final chapters (maybe I got tired), I found some explanations a little bit harder to grasp. Things like swaps, hedges and options and the arrangements between parties to swap cash payments from LIBOR (interest rates). Maybe I need to learn the topics of the final chapters elsewhere to get a better appreciation of what is being explained in Chapter 22.
