5.0 out of 5 stars Money Spinner, 15 Mar 2007

Christopher Morgan "Chris" (Liverpool, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Investing in Stocks and Shares: A Step-by-step Guide to Making Money on the Stock Market (Paperback)

This book is a very good introduction to the stock market basics that you need to begin investing. Im in university and one of my core modules was a trial stock market investing project. Having been advised on reading this book by my lecturer I checked it out of the library, having done so and having read the book I thought it was only fair to the author to purchase it (plus I wanted it for reference).

This book is the all to it book of stock market books. Using this book not only did I get 90% on my course module I have also begun investing my own money in the market. This has to date made me hundreds off a minimal investment amount over a short three month period of time. I could not recommend this book highly enough for research purposes or for the budding investor this book has all you need to know about investing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction, 24 Sep 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Investing in Stocks and Shares: A Step-by-step Guide to Making Money on the Stock Market (Paperback)

This book is a great introduction into the world of stocks and shares. It's up to date and provides plenty of in-depth information, suited to the more astute investor, but still covers the basic points and is easy enough to read and get to grips with for the beginner.
Deserved of it's 5 stars rating.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction for the novice, 21 Nov 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Investing in Stocks and Shares: A Step-by-step Guide to Increasing Your Wealth as a Personal Investor (How to) (Paperback)

This is the book I have been looking for all along.

Clear, simple, concise. After dabbling for a number of months and not really understanding a great deal, this was the book which suddenly illuminated the whole area of stocks and shares for me.

I have read numerous other books purporting to make stocks and shares easier to understand which have always left me wanting to know more than what they told me. This is the book to do it !

Buy, buy, buy !
