Summary: Could be so much better
Comment: What a pity. The first practical guide to the implementation of real options - that I have found at least. Copeland and Antikarov are to be congratulated on finding the gap in the market. But, alas, this book has been so badly spoiled by the endless number of errors: reflects badly on the authors and publishers and also on all those acknowledged at the front of the book who had an opportunity to comment, but obviously did not read it properly. On the positive, there are many useful ideas in this book and it has greatly increased my knowledge of the subject.

Summary: Errors
Comment: Is there a list available with all the errors in the book? Does anyone know where to get it?
Rating: 3
Summary: Delivers on content, but fails badly on presentation
Comment: Content : A
The book enables the reader to understand the world of real options without having to take a course on stochastic calculus, which is good because otherwise Real Options would be too hard to sell to management. The book is rich on examples and presents the building blocks of almost every combination imaginable. More case studies though would have been a big plus.
Presentation : F
You absolutely should not read the book without first [knowing] the corrections.... There are so many errors everywhere - in formulas, calculations and text (a total of 177 for 350 pages of relevant content !!) - that I could only shake my head in disbelief. Quite obviously, nobody has made even a half-baked attempt to proof-read the book.
