It provides a wealth of thoughtful advice and a good pinch of modesty. I would suggest any budding contrarian, or long-term value investors read this book which captures the wisdom, and humour of a brilliant contrarian investor.Peter Lowman, CIO, Investment Quorum

If you want to know how a good investment manager makes money from the stock market, even when they seem to be going against the crowd, this book is a must read. Mundy's insight into the dark mysterious world of professional fund management is refreshing, candid and invaluable.Jeff Prestridge, Personal Finance Editor, Financial Mail on Sunday

Alastair Mundy is one of the greatest contrarians. His new book provides an absolutely essential public service, reminding investors that just because something is popular doesn't make it right, sensible or even worth the price! Crucially this contrarian wisdom, rolled up in this excellent new book, comes with one big plus for the active investor - Alastair is no armchair contrarian as he's been putting his money where his mouth is for many years as a successful fund manager.David Stevenson, columnist for Investment Week and the Financial Times

Any book about investment which can legitimately include Curly Wurlys, cricket, fondue sets and Warren Buffett has got to be worth a read. Mundy's book is witty, insightful and nicely punctures a lot the pomposity of fund managers while reminding us all quite important managing people's money properly is. I laughed continuously throughout but was nodding in agreement with a lot of the simple and sensible messages in these highly readable musings. This book should be read at the height of a bull market or the bottom of a bear market because common sense should always be in vogue but sadly isn't very often.Lawrence Gosling, founding editor, Investment Week
