Inhaltsangabe

As the articles in this book reveal, investors are confronted with a dizzying array of instruments, strategies, goals and controls, advice and counsel from experts, and a deluge of statistics.  However, yesterday's answer often turns out to be tomorrow's wrong number, as markets evolve and fresh information floods in.

Yet beneath all this lies the essence of investment, the hidden future.  If we held the key to that mystery, we could dispense with experts and thier mountains of statistics.  One instrument and strategy would suffice.

This book has been written by leading academics from four business schools renowned for thier investment expertise:  Chicago Graduate School of Business, LBS, Columbia Business School and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.  Together they have produced an invaluable survey of the subject, bringing together fundamental principles, investment practice and cutting edge thinking.

What is at the essence of good investment?  Mastering Investment offers the answers.
