Good desk reference

I just got a copy of "The essential dictionary of investing and finance" and I feel it is a good book to refer back to since it is filled with useful terms in several categories such as bonds, stocks, general investing, mutual funds, etc... it even covers some technical analysis terminology.I believe that this book will be really handy whenever I am reading something online or in other investment books/publications and don't know the meaning of the word.The guy who wrote this book (Jerry M. Rosenberg) sounds very interesting. He's a professor at Rutgers University's Business School and he has authored 28 books (most of which are business related dictionaries.)I believe this book is a really good addition to my library and will be an excellent desk reference.Reed Floren
