Fixed Income Mathematics by Robert Zipf

Is this a good book for FI trading? I've taken a look at the math in it and it doesn't seem that complex at all (and I don't like the fact that, for instance, he just throws formulas there, without deriving them) . I want to have a brief overview of all major fields and products within FI, but I don't feel like reading Fabozzi (1000+ pages) right now. I intend to take a closer look at it, but only after having a brief overview first.
