“The aggressive conservative investor will never go out of style. Regulation, disclosure, and other issues may change, but the general approach and mindset for successful investing is timeless. Read this book and you will learn the basics of “safe and cheap” investing. An essential read for every amateur and professional investor.”
–Stan Garstka, Associate Dean and Professor of Practice, Yale School of Management

“Security Analysis for Better Odds and Higher Long-Term Profits: A Readable and Authoritative Guide.”
–Professor Bill Baumol, New York University

“Reading this book, one is struck by the simplicity of the ideas and the investor's reliance on his or her own understanding of reality as opposed to the myths circulating on the street. The updated version of this 1979 classic incorporates all the modern financial engineering that has come about as a product of the late 20th century, and new methodologies hone its skills in measuring risk, but do not change the fundamentals of value. The updated version of The Aggressive Conservative Investor is very much a value-added proposition.”
–Sam Zell, President of Equity Group Investment LLC

“I agree with those who consider Marty Whitman to be the 'dean of value investing.' This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the art of investing.”
–Melvin T. Stith, Dean of the Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University

This no-nonsense presentation of one of the most successful investment strategies of all time—value investing in distressed stocks or companies—shows you how to analyze and evaluate stocks as if you were the controlling owners of the company. Working from the assumption that stock price rarely reflects true value, authors Whitman and Shubik use numerous case studies to present methods that minimize risk while also offering high rewards. Still relevant today, this classic work includes a new introduction that discusses the dramatic changes that have occurred in the world of value investing since it was first published in 1979.
