This review is from: Index Your Way to Investment Success (Hardcover)

Quite pleased, and informed. The 2 authors have done a commendable job in delivering the facts and opinions in a straightforward, manner. This is one of the better index books out there. Though there are still far too little. 5 index books total?....The other great index book is Larry's...But overall, this book is top notch.
