Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition Description
"Graham's ideas inspired the investment community for nearly a century."--Smart Money
"Graham's method of investing is as relevant today as it was when he first espoused it during the Roaring Twenties."--Investor's Business Daily
Benjamin Graham's revolutionary theories have influenced and inspired investors for nearly 70 years. First published in 1934, his Security Analysis is still considered to be the value investing bible for investors of every ilk. Yet, it is the second edition of that book, published in 1940 and long since out of print, that many experts--including Graham protégé Warren Buffet--consider to be the definitive edition. This facsimile reproduction of that seminal work makes available to investors, once again, the original thinking of "this century's (and perhaps history's) most important thinker on applied portfolio investment."

I know not who will read this, but perhaps I can act as a MENTOR to you, and we will never meet. In all of life there are short cuts that can shave years of trial, error, and pain, that others who do not learn the shortcuts must pay the price. Each generation has to learn what the previous generation has learned. Sometime they don't, and the results are clearly evident in the histories that we read, and take for granted.
No one argues that the greatest investor of the 20th century is Warren Buffett. He has an Einstein type brain lodged inside his skull. You couple this enormous intellect with a laser-like focus and discipline, and you still don't have the world's greatest investor. What Buffet needed was the skill sets, a template that he could fall back on to face every conceivable business analysis, in any type of economic environment.
Remember it was Buffett in the height of the bull market in the late 1960's that cashed in the investment partnership he ran, and sent back the money to every investor along with a letter. During the height of the bull craze absolutely equivalent to the Internet craze we all went through a few years ago, Buffett had this to say. When the game that is played is no longer the game I understand, it's time to leave the game. He did, and saved a fortune in the bear market that ensued - the worst bear market since the Great Depression.
How did Warren Buffett do it? It was simple. There's an expression that Isaac Newton arguably the greatest intellect of the last five hundred years use to tell people. It's called OTSOG; it means On The Shoulders of Giants. Newton was implying that if he had seen more than others, if he knew more than others; it is by standing ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS.
