Here is what people are saying about the Dynamic Hedging : Managing Vanilla and Exotic Options (Wiley Finance)
5 Star Rating  "Thorough"2009-09-14
- Reviewed By User: A18IX3IIKWKPI8
Very academic, but extremely insightful. I was a music major, and with a little patience, I was able to understand everything in the book. I would recommend this book to anyone looking to get past just the basics.
 
5 Star Rating  "One of a kind"2009-05-21
- Reviewed By User: AO0LBP27LXO8L
The book is a difficult read the first time around while you get used to Taleb's style. It is because his style is so refreshingly different from everything published on the subject before and 10 years later I don't see anything that comes close. If you are a beginner, get the basic option math down (Hull) then read Taleb, and be patient. I have the original edition and have read it several times from cover to cover and I don't see the "numerous" errors several reviewers are complaining about. There are a few very obvious typos towards the end of the book, but all the conclusions and intuition is right. If you think it's wrong, it's most likely you, not the book. Go reread it and think about it, you will get it and you will want to thank Taleb for making you think.
I am a vol trader and I use this book to filter out idiots. If this book ticks you off, you don't have a makeup of a trader. Do yourself a favor and find something else to do. People who give this book a negative review are most frequently quants. His criticism towards guants has a purpose - it is to make you as an impressionable young trader aware that a person with a PhD does not have all the answers, and that you should not be intimidated and use your own head. If this ticks quants off then so be it. The book is not for them.

This is a ponderous work that needs close study. Most investing books omit
real information on the subject where as this one presents a massive overdose. I appreciate the author's willingness to reveal what he knows but I think in this case that I'm going to need help on the subject.
 
4 Star Rating  "Outstanding"2008-05-31

Taleb once again. Although you may require some knowledge on futures and option trading to understand the bottom of the story, it is nice book, light to read and usefull. If you trade on futures and options you should take a look inside, not becuase of the technical content but to have a close look at the man's ideas.
 
4 Star Rating  "Excellent book, intuitive approach although not to be used for introductory purposes"2008-03-19
- Reviewed By User: A2L91Y0S3VRNB7
Before starting as a trader I had studied Hull in college and took some 'advanced' investments classes. On the first day of work I was told to read 'Dynamic Hedging'.
My impression: Hull teaches you the (very) basics and Taleb gives you insight in the concepts that are truly relevant. However, do not expect to read it and get everything he writes. As it is written from a practicioner's point of view, things will probably only become cristal clear when you re-read it after spending a considerable amount of time in the dealing room.
 
4 Star Rating  "Quick Question"2007-12-12
- Reviewed By User: A3D2QUNM43DZWL
This isn't so much a review as an inquiry -

I'm still working through this book, but I've noticed that it is replete with algebraic errors. Taleb doesn't always go through every step of his calculations, so they're difficult to follow.

Does anyone else notice these errors or am I getting caught in the algebra? An example is on page 38 towards the top:

He says that 12,500,000/.985 is 1,269,000. Even with the rounding (shaving off the 355), I'd say he's off by a factor of 10. Shouldn't the answer by 12,690,000? To confirm this, in the next paragraph he writes that a 1 cent rise in the futures price will yield $125,000 in profits on the future (12,500,000*.01) or $126,900 on the forward hedge. Intuitively, it seems that to get $126,900, you could divide $125,000 by .985 or multiply 12,690,000 (the answer you should've previously arrived at) by .01.

There are other errors like this throughout the book - anyone else notice them?
