Overview

This book is a review of the analytical methods required in most of the quantitative courses taught at MBA programs. Students with no technical background, or who have not studied mathematics since college or even earlier, may easily feel overwhelmed by the mathematical formalism that is typical of economics and finance courses.

The objective of this book is to present the essential quantitative concepts and methods in a self-contained, non-technical, and intuitive way.
