This current version overcomes those problems and is an excellent survey/intermediate-level text (the best on the market I've seen). It starts from simpler and more basic FI products and quickly goes into more detailed and esoteric ones. The balance between the high-level picture and detail is good. For more detail and advanced math/modelling, you will have to buy more specialized books (say on credit derivatives/KMV models or asset-backed securities modeling). I will be spending much time with this book over the next 6 months. I would highly recommend it along with the Tuckman and Bhansali books for advanced readers.
