A Market Price Approach (Westport: Quorum Books, 1996).<BR/><BR/>It is already a bit old, and it shows: if written today, it would include more references to things like CDS, the VIX, etc. But the book does an EXTRAORDINARY job at explaining currency & FX markets, and the crucial link between the bank rate (a.k.a as the fed funds rate) and long bonds. The treatment is very different from conventional textbooks.

When China invests in US Treasuries, it does exactly what Dr. Rueff had in mind. Now, the dollar has fallen quite sharply, and the real estate bubble is in trouble... The model has proven very useful, but --just like any other model-- it has its limitations.
