Which Financial Modeling book?

Hi guys,

I was wondering which Financial Modeling book is the best to learn and practice from it for basic to more advanced bankers?

I was thinking about this one: http://www.amazon.com/Investment-Banking-Valuation-Leveraged-Acquisitions/dp/0470442204/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256944016&sr=1-8

Do you have any thoughts about it? Does it include exercises?

Thx

 
lui:
Fantastic book... writen by two investment bankers and with real-world stuff, no theories.

There are 4 valuation models that comes with the book... in fact, the book is structured as a step-by-step guide to build the 4 basic models in banking (DCF, Comparable Companies, Precedent Transactions and LBO).

It's really worth it!

Does it contain practice exercises?
