Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits and Other Writings

Philip A. Fisher

This influential book on investing by Philip Fisher has been regarded by many as gospel for almost forty years. Its investment philosophies are still studied and applied by financiers and investors today. The updated paperback includes the author's son's perspectives and an expanded preface and introduction. Warren Buffet himself says that a thorough understanding of the business, obtained by using Fisher's techniques, enables one to make intelligent investment commitments.
