The Fundamentals Of Municipal Bonds, 5th Edition Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Praise for the Classic Guide to the Bond Market "This is simply the most comprehensive, useful look-it-up book on municipal bonds I've ever read (said with all due respect to The ABC of Municipal Bonds my dad wrote in 1937 when I was nine). Read Fundamentals cover to cover. I'm keeping mine in my briefcase, under my arm, at my fingertips. No accountant, financial advisor, attorney, new bond salesman, reporter, regulator, test-writer, cautious, suspicious first-time investor in municipal bonds, or dinner guest is ever going to catch me again with a question about municipal bonds I can't answer."-Jim Lebenthal, Chairman, Lebenthal & Co. "Judy Wesalo Temel gives us the Rosetta stone of the municipal bond market, the key to unraveling the many mysteries of 'muni's.' Her book, a fresh take on the old standard Fundamentals of Municipal Bonds, updates chapter and verse on everything from investing to underwriting, from over-the-counter to over-the-Internet. The style is clean, crisp, and as simple as this complex subject can be. Are you a novice who wonders how to invest in bonds? She lays out the basics. Examples are easy to follow-even the mathematical ones that are critical to explaining how municipal bonds work. At the same time, there is plenty of meat for the pros. Whether you need to start from square one and learn all about municipal bonds and how they work, or need a ready reference for specific technical questions you run across as a market professional, this book is for you."-Kathleen Hays, Economics Editor, Credit Markets Reporter, and "Bond Belle" CNBC "This is a must-read for every scholar, banker, and public official concerned with local government finance in the United States. Judy Wesalo Temel has done the impossible: she has clearly and insightfully explained how we finance the development of the nation's vital public infrastructure. This is an important book, one that will be required reading for professionals responsible for planning, designing, and evaluating publicly financed projects-the health care, transportation, and educational facilities that all citizens rely upon. The bond market is an essential element in the life of local and state government, and this book makes it understandable to all Americans."-Mitchell Moss, Henry Hart Rice Professor of Urban Planning and Director, Taub Urban Research Center, Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, New York University

After a few years in waiting, I am glad to see that the Bond Market Association has released the 5th addition of The Fundamentals of Municiple Bonds. The author of this book did a great job capturing the signifigance of the municiple bond, and exaplining it clearly with graphs and charts. I highly recomend this book and give it a 5 star rating.
This is a really holistic, yet compact review of most of the facets of the municipal bond market. It's easy to read, and really covers everything an introduction should. The only thing is it needs to be updated with current tables and new development in the market, so only four stars. But, if you are looking to learn all about muni bonds, this is a great resource.
This is really a text book on municipal bonds....the kinds...the ratings and how the municipal bond market works and how it is supervised. If you are looking for strategies on how to invest in these bonds, this is not the book for you. This is a very basic book with almost more information about bonds than the average investor really needs to know. I learned a lot.
This book gives an excellent overview of muni bonds. It covers the terminology associated with these bonds.However it contains limited math analysis.Excellent, excellent reference book.
The book is very good. It explains how the municipal bond market works that includes how and why municipal bonds are issue. The bond explain the process of selling the bond to market and how the bonds are traded in the secondary market. The main problem with books is its age. The book was wriiten in 2000. The book needs to be updated.
