With nearly a million copies sold, "Security Analysis" has been
continuously in print for more than sixty years. No investment book
in history had either the immediate impact, or the long-term
relevance and value, of its first edition in 1934. By 1951,
seventeen years past its original publication and more than a
decade beyond its revised and acclaimed 1940 second edition,
authors Benjamin Graham and David Dodd had seen business and
investment markets travel from the depths of Depression to the
heights of recovery, and had observed investor behavior during both
the calm of peacetime and the chaos of World War II.
The prescient thinking and insight displayed by Graham and Dodd
in the first two editions of "Security Analysis" reached new
heights in the third edition. In words that could just as easily
have been written today as fifty years ago, they detail techniques
and strategies for attaining success as individual investors, as
well as the responsibilities of corporate decision makers to build
shareholder value and transparency for those investors.
The focus of the book, however, remains its timeless guidance
and advice--that careful analysis of balance sheets is the primary
road to investment success, with all other considerations little
more than distractions. The authors had seen and survived the Great
Depression as well as the political and financial instabilities of
World War II and were now better able to outline a program for
sensible and profitable investing in the latter half of the
century.
"Security Analysis: The Classic 1951 Edition" marks the return
of this long-out-of-print work to the investment canon. It will
reacquaint you with the foundations of value investing--more
relevant than ever in tumultuous twenty-first century markets--and
allow you to own the third installment in what has come to be
regarded as the most accessible and usable title in the history of
investment publishing.
