Summary: A Good Introduction, But Not Always Clear
Date: 2007-01-11 - 
Comment: First of all, let me say that I did get a lot out of this book. As someone new to investing, it answered some of my questions, but not all. My main complaint is that it's descriptions are not always clear. For example, when describing a Head and Shoulders Pattern (page 120) the reader is refered to a figure as an example. This is great, except that the author does not tell the reader where to look in the figure. Thus, the explaination has little value, unless you know what this pattern looks like in the first place. It would have been nice to include a glossary of terms, especially for fundamental analysis, even if these terms were not discussed in detail in the text.
My recommendation would be to get this book if you want a quick introduction to stocks. Be prepared to invest in additional references if you want to make sense of your broker's quotes.

Summary: Great book -- I rate it 5 stars.
Date: 2006-03-09 -
Comment: I am a finance major and wanted a quick overview of the stock market. This book was fantastic. It covered more material than any other book on the shelf. Very detailed and very entertaining. (I noticed that it's listed on our supplemental reading list so the teacher knows it's a good book). 5 stars.
