A Mechanical Must
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Whether a long term investor, or not, one needs to know the mechanics of markets. This is where the speculators and short term investors lurk. Use this book as a text book for study and not necessarily to be enjoyed for the ease of reading. You have to have it.

Excellent resource for the beginning investor. This book answers the questions the layman is too embarrassed to ask. Great start for building a foundation in a challenging arena.
Review of 'The Stock Market', various editions.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The title of the book suggests no bias or agenda for the work. It simply adopts the title of a very broad and complex area of commerce as it's own name; The Stock Market. The book offers a basic understanding of many aspects of the 'Market'in a way that the un-initiated can understand. Anyone looking for help in selecting a sure path to riches will be dissapointed. Anyone seeking an understanding of the basics, and how various aspects of the 'Market' relate to each other will be rewarded.This book deliveres knowledge and understanding without bias. It can serve as general reading material or as a reference. It prepares the reader to select and understand other material.New editions appear when the 'market' changes enough to warrant new material. The content is up to date without being padded by trendy but useless material.Cliff Critchettend of review comments
A Very detailed Primer.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Although this book is an introduction as well as a reference, some knowledge of stock market is assumed. The author often uses technical terms without defining them in the chapter(although there is a small dictionary in the back). If you have traded once or twice before, you should know at least some of those terms.
