Long Winded and Perseverance Required November 27, 2007 Chris Carson (London UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is very long winded and can be very hard work, simply because it's written by a propeller head for propeller heads. However, it can be digested by ordinary people with supreme effort and perseverance. Should you decide to continue, you will be well rewarded as all the information you need is here. Although it's unlikely you'll ever finish it, having long since given up.
Lost in the financial jargon December 5, 2001 12 out of 17 found this review helpful
After a few pages I was at a total loss. The author kept mentioning all the jargon, saying that will examine this in more detail in chapter X. Another thing I noticed is that the advice on this book about what each index says is not very sound. For instance high P/E ratio says indicates a growth company and is worth investing. It then goes on to correct saying that it may also indicate that the share is overpriced. Confused? The only good thing about this book is that it covers many topics so you may find it useful.
Very clear and well referenced October 23, 2001 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Veyr useful book for non financial specialists looking to interpret financial information - includes useful glossaries, definitions and guidelines to locating and understanding how to apply key financial data.
easily comprehendible January 4, 2001 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
A novice in the world of finance, I found the guide clear and useful in its interpretation amidst the vast information found in the financial pages. The definitions, explanation on the various indices as well as financial jargon, has provided a useful insight into the workings of the financial world.
