THE NEW BUFFETTOLOGY

A primer to the investing style and philosophy of the most successful investor of all time, Warren Buffett, is co-authored and read by Buffett's daughter. In a straightforward and matter-of-fact tone, Ms. Buffett explains the principles that have allowed her father and his Berkshire Hathaway company to achieve extraordinary success. The book embraces his "selective contrarian" approach to investments. In Buffettology, cheap isn't necessarily a bargain, and a bargain doesn't always represent value. The program explains the discipline behind uncovering companies that have a durable competitive advantage but whose shares are undervalued in the market. The New Buffettology looks at the total value of enterprises and asks the question: Does this investment make business sense? S.E.H. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 03]
