If you're looking for a good book on quantitative finance that covers a
lot of the theoretical underpinnings without getting lost in the math of
the advanced techniques, I recommend picking up a copy of

Statistics and Finance: An Introduction
by David Ruppert

http://www.amazon.com/Statistics-Finance-Introduction-David-Ruppert/dp/0387202706

R code for all of his examples is available online.

Great to hear someone else likes this book! It's one of my favourites - very
clear and with a nice statistician slant.
