The Encyclopedia of Alternative Investments is a great reference source for both students and professionals seeking an understanding of the various alternative investment terms. It provides definitions for nearly 600 alternative investment terms, which are provided in an easily accessible format rather than looking up the definitions online. The terms are defined by academics and professionals in the alternative investment space and are defined in easy-to-understand terms. Investor interest in alternative investments continues to grow, and this encyclopedia provides a comprehensive source of definitions for the alternative investment areas of venture capital, hedge funds, managed futures, and commodities. The encyclopedia provides the definitions by category, making definitions easily obtainable. It is a valuable reference source for all those individuals interested in alternative investments.
