Very dense, but lacking focus.

There's a *tremendous* amount of material in here about various factors to consider when buying equities. Almost every paragraph raises some new point to consider, and it's all fascinating in it's own way, but it leaves you (or at least me) feeling more bewildered than informed.

The primary reference points are the investing principles of Ben Graham, Warren Buffett and Joel Greenblatt: and the book assumes you already have quite a bit of established knowledge and vocabulary to work with. I found it quite refreshing to read a book that doesn't treat you as a rank beginner and recite the same cliches and anecodtes you've heard a dozen times before, but I would recommend making yourself familiar with the above referenced authors first.

I tend to be of the KISS school, and this book makes an undeniably complex subject, fantastically complex. There's no unifying, easily-summed up set of principles to guide when you actually sit down and try to decide what to buy. I've no doubt many finance nerds (of whom I am one) will enjoy the endless reams of data, but those looking for a concise and practical guide on how to buy stocks, might want to look elsewhere.

Narrator is fine.
