    Reviews

    "By resisting both the popular tendency to use gimmicks that oversimplify securities analysis and the academic tendency to use jargon that obfuscates common sense, Pat Dorsey has written a substantial and useful book. His methodology is sound, his examples clear and his approach timeless."
    - Christopher C. Davis, Portfolio Manager and Chairman, Davis Advisors
