The Long and the Short of it: Finance and investment for normally intelligent people who are not in the industry |
This book was a step into foreign territory. Recommended as a straightforward guide for the uninitiated, so it turned out to be. John Kay covers difficult concepts with clarity and a nice sense of irony.It is factually accurate up to October 2008 and so covers most of the recent upheavals in the financial markets. There are a couple of chapters that are tough going - skip them and come back later if you're really keen. (David Truman - bwl 51 May 2009) |
