"I encourage performance practitioners (and investment practitioners) at all levels to read this text. It will confirm your understanding of the basics of performance and also introduce you to quite a few advanced topics. It's likely that you will find something that you didn't understand as well as you might be able to (I know I did)."
- Stephen Campisi, CFA
"Yes to its title, the book touches on all key topics relating to investment performance measurement and attribution analysis. By tackling complex concepts with a writing style that is easy to understand, this will serve as a great reference piece to those both new to the world of performance and those who are well experienced."
-Todd Juillerat, CFA
"David Spauldings latest book is exactly as you expect - a tremendous resource, written in David's usual easy-to-understand style, an essential requirement for all performance measurement professionals."
-Carl Bacon, CIPM, Chairman, StatPro
"I sincerely believe that this book is a necessary component for the library of any well-informed performance professional and a phenomenal resource with lots of practical application for the management team that is looking to build a world-class performance measurement effort."
-Sandra Hahn-Colbert, CFA
