This book seems to say nothing special about penny stock but common sence about stocks. I have strong feeling that major purpose author wrote this book was to promote his company's business. This book is definitely not worth to buy.

Leeds is the master...his premise of low-priced stocks with robust fundamentals not only makes sense, it works. He walks you through each step of this type of trading.His site is helpful, but not essential. His method proves that there is an alternative to the anemic results that the blue-chips provide [i.e. 6-8% vs. Leeds 74% in 2009]. The brokerage firms are a well-oiled advertising machine for the large-cap companies to sell their stocks, that's where they make their commissions. Leeds picks solid companies with low debt, sellable product/services and strong management teams.In addition,his formula is designed to contain and minimize risk. You will always love this book.
