Review

The author’s foreword describes the book as “an attempt to explain, in the simplest terms, the different ways available to the average individual to invest in the capital market.” Unfortunately, it is too simple for anyone who has taken an introductory investment course and too broad for someone who has not. Its very simplicity serves no purpose other than to be a series of definitions that are available in any investment textbook (in which they are more fully explained).
