Great Book 
This book is a great intro to commodities. please see my blog for an in depth review simekspeculation.blogspot
Beginners Guide 
This an insightful book about the authors experience with commodity trades. For those who are clueless and watch Mad Money, I wouldn't recommend this book because it doesn't visualization. It's More of a general overview of the basics, it brings a good feeling for individual investors who are stumbling to make a decent decision.

br /Instead, go with Dona Kline, Kenneth Morris "WSJ: Guide to Understanding Money and Investing" or stick to the Dearborn PassTrack books. Also try Kaplan for continuous education, but don't rely on it too much.

br /For those who are seriously taking the securities exams, always prepare yourself for 110%, nothing less.

br /GO FOR IT !
Eveything you need, nothing you don't!
I've found that most financial books are either overly simplistic overviews that are rarely more informative than a pamphlet or are filled with arcane academic information that is not put into any useful/practical context. This book does a fantastic job bridging the gap. It begins with an excellent overview on how the markets work, then moves into practical strategies, with an emphasis on which indicators are likely to be most helpful. It's easy to read, in part due to the author's personal touch. Definitely not dry.
br /To call this book "largely pedestrian" is pompous and petty. If you're new to futures or at an intermediate trading level, do yourself a favor and buy this book!
a balanced introduction
If trading is about markets, psychology, technique, then this book is an excellent introduction to these areas. Beeing balanced and only 250 pages, the book does not cover the areas in much depth. This might be a positive or a negative according to what one wants. 5 stars because the book is easy to read and gives an excellent big picture view on trading.
Great Book with a lot pf tips
this book is ideal for beginners and pro's that need some directions on how to make things the right way, i must say i enjoyed the small stories in between , overall whoever is looking to begin trading futures it is a must
