The Harriman Book Of Investing Rules

This is not a work designed to be read through, but should be used as a reference work, to be dipped into when appropriate. At �19.99 for around 500 pages, it offers terrific value when compared with the extortionate cost of much investment advice offered by so-called financial professionals. The Global-Investor Book of Investing Rules will almost certainly prove to be the most useful financial book published all year.Luke Johnson, The Sunday Telegraph

Investing Rules is compiled by Philip Jenks and Stephen Eckett of the Global Investor bookshop. They must have asked every author on their shelves - and a few others besides - to write down 10 useful rules for investors. About 150 responded. The outcome is a fascinating patchwork quilt with every strand of the subject briefly represented.Alistair Blair, Investors Chronicle

There is actually so much in The Book of Investing Rules that it is like a condensed library of the best financial publications. While many 'how to invest' books are a good one-off read this one goes a lot further: serious investors will mark and linger over key passages; re-read important sections many times over; and reference favourite contributions as a touchstone for developing and refining their own investment approaches. A real treasure chest of insights and ideas that we think readers of Techinvest will find both enjoyable and useful.Conor McCarthy, Techinvest
