Lawrence A. Cunningham

This book is like a talk to a wise man. Not boring at all. Packed heavily with jokes, stories, moral and morale fables. The beginning is a bit dry, since it is written by a professor but then, when it gets into Warren's own telling it becomes very interesting. As it is a collection of the essays otherwise available on the Berkshire Hathaway web page the arrangement is so that I had to re read same of some parts twice and sometimes trice. In overall the book is great even for non business person as I am. I was reading it while enunciating each word and number aloud. This work is so good and so interesting to me that I didn't want to miss a thing. I wanted to immerse myself in it. That is why I was reading it aloud so that I not only see it but also speak it and hear it. Good job.… (plus d'informations)

I was lucky enough to receive a galley copy of this book and it is excellent. Cunningham researched Bershire's subsidiaries and performed multiple in-depth interviews with key Berkshire managers to understand the culture and to answer the question of how durable that culture is.

Any observer of business will find this book both fascinating and useful. It will enable a much deeper understanding of Berkshire Hathaway's remarakable culture, how it works, and why it will endure Beyond Buffett.

The books is an absolute must-read for any Value Investor or follower of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, as well as for a broader business audience..… (plus d'informations)

To anybody involved with investment, Warren Buffet does not need an introduction. But his (so far successful beyond his own expectations) approach to investment, based on the value of the asset and its potential to add value to his own business is something that is at least worthwhile understanding, if not emulating.
Lawrence Cunningham has made the effort to take the comprehensive thoughts of Warren Buffet as expressed in his widely recognized letters to shareholders and has grouped them by subject, giving an easy and structured access to the thinking and philosophy of a successful investor.
If you care about making your money work for you, this book is a must read.… (plus d'informations)
