"Here is undoubtedly the most arresting book on the stock market that we have ever read. We have seen hundreds of books on investment, trading, speculation, stocks, bonds and security analysis: but never before have we seen a book like Risk and Return--it is in every respect unique. This book has a timeless quality which destines it to stand as a monumental guide to success in speculation and investment as long as the New York Stock Exchange remains the heart of our financial community and capitalism the basis of our economic life. Risk and Return could have been written only by tough minded realists?by men who have fought, suffered and won out?by men who have become adjusted to the rugged dog-ear-dog environment of the great market places and been disciplined beyond the norm to the tensions and conflict a modem finance--that is, by men of great experience. From their position of vantage as observant seasoned "insiders" in the brokerage and investment counsel business the Authors ruthlessly destroy one popular illusion after another and replace these vicious fictions with useful truth--"--publisher.
