Kitap 25 farklı kitabın özeti niteliğinde. Hepsi farklı hikayeleri anlatıyor. Yazar içinde anlattığı kitapları beğenip beğenmediğini söylüyor ama neden olduğuna dair önerileri çok yüzeysel kalıyor. Kitapta bütünsellik arayanlar için iyi bir kitap sayılmaz. Okuduktan sonra zihnimde çok fazla bilgi kalmadığını söyleyebilirim.

It's not what I thought, but it's what I should have expected. I wanted more clips from the classics instead of a review of the classics.

I got this as a survey on investment books and strategies. It provided just what I was looking for. I found it more useful to read about the books in the order of their publication date rather than the order the author placed them in his book. That way I could see how investment thinking had evolved which was also instructive. I'm not sure why this is rated so low as it provides just what the title describes but since no one else has written a review (to date) it's unclear what issues others have with this book.

I ended up reading several of the 25 books listed.
