Re the McMillan book:

You should read a couple of the reviews on amazon.com to see what it's all about. I think it's serious and intelligent without being overly technical (I don't think it even uses calculus? or does it?). If you are looking to read someone's "strategy for making big money in options," it's not the book for you. If you're looking for a textbook understanding of options as a financial tool, it's the perfect book for you. I don't like investment books that try to get you to do something. I prefer investment books that lay out the facts and then let you make your own decisions: exactly what McMillan does.

re:a good book to learn options
McMillan is so long and boring however;try Roth's "LEAPS": a faster read, and LEAPS are a much safer way to start options trading.
(Only 200 companies have leaps...ntap doesnt yet)

It's a very good book, it's also a very long book.
