Peter Lynch is successful at presenting a good explanation of the stock market and a good method at being successful with it. He is very entertaining and provides many examples through out the book explaining concepts, jargon, and his methods for the average person to understand. If you're interested in stocks or just curious I highly recommend this book.

A lot of people seem to be jumping into the stock market without investing much time in developing a working knowledge of trading. This book is a great starting point, and an interesting read.

A must read - it will steal you for the rocky markets
A cracking read, even for the beginner's investor. Loads of hints and tips for how to invest. My only suggestion is that you take a pen and paper and make notes throughout.
