   None No current Talk conversations about this book.  pratalife | Feb 9, 2014 |  I actually listened to the version narrated by Stefan Rudnicki - one of my favourite 'voice actors' - and he did a good job of bringing some life to the pages and making this somewhat tolerable. While the book does present and illustrate the Buffet investing characteristics with enough biographical information to flesh out the story in an interesting way, in the end the book's repetitiveness got to me. Buffet's philosophy is renowned for it's simple common sense. A great strength for investment theory, but a poison pill for someone writing on the topic. I couldn't help thinking the author really struggled to pad the material out to the requisite number of pages. (  ) pratalife | Feb 9, 2014 | To read #5: Bufffett's approach to stock selection.  SoliDeoGloria | Mar 31, 2013 | The Warren Buffet Way is a comprehensive look at the investment strategies of Warren Buffet, the richest man in the world. The book was written with enough economic jargon that satiates the business-savy, but wasn't too complex for laymen. While I don't expect to become a billionaire like Buffet, I was able to gleam enough information from the book to assist me in whatever investments I make, and allowed me to glance into the mind of the world's richest man.

His 'homespun' wisdom and philosophy are also part of this comprehensive, interesting, and readable book." -John C. Bogle Chairman, The Vanguard Group "It's first rate.
