Summary: Good book on energy, but read with other books
Comment: Overall a very good book on energy derivatives. The author's pratical experience is very valuable.
But there are quite a few things to improve:
1. The graphs are not good, particularly date axis.
2. Formulae are not typed well, there are some typos. The publisher can certainly uses some improvement. So if possible, derive the formulae by yourself before using them. This may cost you some money !
3. The models described in the books are good, but do not use them blindly. It is better to have have solid derivatives background before using these models. J. Hull's book is a good source.
Again, this is a good book for people with derivatives background. I'd like to see more examples, rigorious treatment of the formulae and expanded modeling techniques.
A must-have for the energy folks...

Summary: Risk Analyst
Comment: Dragana's book is a tremendous reference tool for anyone in the energy risk management field. Ms. Pilpovic not only makes this difficult subject easy for the reader, she also provides the detailed math behind the theories. This book was very helpful for both developing our internal risk management systems, as well as describing those systems to regulatory agencies.
Rating: 4
Summary: Not for newcomers
Comment: I work in the energy products/generation industry and thought this will help explain what the whole energy-risk field is about. I'm still as confused now as I was before I bought the book .. probably because I dont have a strong background in computational finance. This is defintely not for newcomers and is really geared to the quants.
