Benjamin Graham and David L. Dodd's Security Analysis, first published by McGraw-Hill nearly 75 years ago, forever changed the theory and practice of successful investing.
Written in the midst of the Great Depression and in the wake of the 1929 stock market crash, the book convinced the nation that stocks were still worth buying and became a bible for generations of investors, the most famous being Warren Buffett. Its timeless advice is as relevant today as when it was first published.
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the book and to make Graham's work even more accessible to the current generation of investors, McGraw-Hill Professional announces that it will publish SECURITY ANALYSIS: THE 6th EDITION in October 2008. McGraw-Hill has assembled today's most prominent value investors. These practitioners are joined by top value investing academics and authors. They present new commentary that will refresh and update the 1940 edition, which is considered the definitive edition by many Graham aficionados including Buffett. This edition will also include a CD-ROM of the original text.
