This review is from: A Wonderful Company at a Fair Price: A Guide for Serious Investors on the Australian Sharemarket (Hardcover)

This book is one of the best I have seen for value investors and nails the fundamentals of valuing a company. It has an excellent run-down of how to do the mathematics of calculating intrinsic value - something lacking in most other books about value investing. He is an unabashed admirer of Warren Buffett and quotes him extensively (with Buffett's permission). Although it is targetted at Australian readers, it will have universal relevance. Highly recommended.

The person Idolizes Warren Buffet and constantly refers to him in the book. If you want a book on Warren Buffet there are betters ones else where. Use a search engine on "Cult of personality". The examples are pityful and hard to follow. I am really glad I didnt buy the book and I borrowed it from the library.
