Too much for nothing
The book lists a series of financial theories without bringing any clear connection to operational risk. The tools and techniques presented can be seen in any other finance book. No examples are presented in general, making questionable the author's experience in the "measurement of operational risk" as stated in the title. This book will not raise your knowledge in the field.
Vincent , Internal Auditor
The author has board knowledge in different areas, However, the book is too theoretical and lack of examples to discuss the practical application. It may be a book which may give you good background in the operational risks but could not give you a practical examples to use in practice.

Chock-full of typos
I used this text in my Western Civ course. While it is solid in historical content, it averages at least one typo per page. Obviously it was never even spellchecked. I tried to ignore the first hundred or so but they just keep on coming. Inexcusable.

Somewhat condescending account of first-time lovers
Rather brutal story of a young couple who experience sexual fantasies in an icy environemt. Definitely not for maiden aunts

Extremely disappointing!
This book certainly doesn't reflect what the publicity said about it. It's mostly just a bunch of b&w stills from Lee's Hammer Dracula series that we've all seen 1000 times before (and not even reproduced very well, for that matter.) There are a total of 27 pages of text, most of which are plot summaries. I cannot too strongly warn experienced Hammer readers that you will feel more than a bit of anger upon purchasing this particular tome. I am going to be very wary of anything under the "Glitter Books" moniker in the future. Johnson & Del Vecchio's "Hammer Films: An Exhaustive Filmography" or the Rigby book are far superior on this subject, among just a few alternates to look for.
