Sound advice in a crazy investment world

Kirzner and Croft have written a no-nonsense, down-to-earth book of advice on investing for the confused lot! Their well written guide is not only practical, but also includes information from the academic world of finance: important studies are briefly summmarized and enhance the concepts presented. This is also a book of great interest for Canadian investors because it provides information and examples specific to the Canadian markets and tax system. In the sea of investment advice books for US investors, it surely can be considered a life-vest for the Canadian investor. Irreplaceable!
