Four things:

1. The perspective of a commercial trader.
2. Several well defined TA strategies.
3. Discussion of fundamental strategies.
4. A full chapter (over 150 pages) devoted to the major currency pairs with an economic overview, monetary policy, characteristics, and indicators for each.

This book provides the big picture of Forex from all sides along with plenty of detail on strategy and techniques. I've read dozens of books on Forex, but this is the first one where I actually walked away feeling I had a really good understanding of the market and how to apply it to daily trading.

IMHO, this book along with Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas are the two best Forex books ever written.
