Very detailed - By: W. Henderson, 28 Oct 2007
This book is packed with jargon & explanations & it works well as a reference. It helps me to pick out bits of interest. It doesnt work so well reading it cover to cover, it doesnt always flow very well & it tends to have short examples rather than captivating stories.
At last a financial book good for beginners - By: , 20 Dec 2001
First I tried to read "Using the Financial Pages" by FT but after I read a few pages I stopped. Definitions & more definitions. This book is different because it have examples. Thus you understand much better things like EPS, PE, etc. From my experience people who understand things well can also explain them well & I think Michael Brett is one of those guys. If you want to invest in stocks, this book is worth the money, as it will help you understand the fundementals.
Storming book for the beginner and reference to the expert - By: , 12 Sep 2001
As a newbie to finance I wanted a book that would ease me into the normallly mysterious & murky world of finance, stocks & shares. I bought this book from Amazon & although I wouldn't calll myself an expert I have a much firmer grasp of share dealing. I am outperforming my friends who have been trading 18 months & even in this bear market I am still in profit. Buy this book now.
