Customer Rating:
Summary: Great book
Comment: A wondeful book to read although it takes time, before one enters into the world of investing as it teaches sound principles which one can refer back to in times of confusion. Probably a book to keep re-reading through ones investing career.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wisdom of the Ancients
Comment: Much, if not most, of what is written about the stock market is worthless. This book, on the other hand, is a work of scholarship that will be of value to investors for as long as markets continue to exist.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A must read for the serious investor
Comment: The language may be a bit dated but the advice is still good, proving there is little new in the world of investing. If you follow Graham's practical advice on valuing companies, assessing risk and investing for the long term you will make money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Lives up to the hype
Comment: Most investors seem to have heard of this book - many refer to it as the bible of value investing. I think that the esteem that it is held in is probably counter productive (Barton Biggs, hedge fund manager, talks about being asked to read and annotate it twice as a young man), but what impressed me is that it is a very simple readable book that explains how to invest long term, to maximise wealth.
I don't think that Zweig's commentary adds much - I would pay more for a version with it excised - it provides interesting detail on what Graham may have considered important which is great, but it also provides a lot of anecdotal evidence which could be misleading. It also triples the length and provides a lot of distraction.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Invest In This Book, Invest In Yourself
Comment: With more than one million copies sold and an endorsement on the cover by Warren Buffet, you know there has to be something to this book- and I think I know why. Simply because it is the first book ever to describe the emotional framework and analytical tools necessary for financial success for individual investors.
Probably the single best book on investing written for the lay-public and the stock market bible since its first appearance in 1949, it's a great resource, although it's quite a thick book and filled with detail- and probably not for anybody but the serious stock market investor. And if getting motivated to start investing is your problem, suggest The Sixty-Second Motivator. Good luck!
