Drawing on the works of true titans in the field, like Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, and nobel-prize winning professors Eugene Fama and Kenneth French, this book summarizes the views of the true experts, rather than presenting the author's own "pet theories" for achieving stock-market greatness.

Best of all, at the end of each chapter the authors include a "Further Reading" section where you can directly link to some of the most influential books, journal articles, and websites on the topic.

This review is from: Investing in the Stock Market: A Primer (Kindle Edition)

This book is a very concise and readable guide to choosing stocks. It fully acknowledges the difficulties involved in “beating the market” and does not claim to have any magic (and almost certainly false) strategies. It includes a very nice description of the “efficient market hypothesis” and its strength and weaknesses. Mostly, it provides a common sense guide to evaluating financial statements along with questions to ask before buying a stock.
