- Not for beginners, but excellent book
I haven't read the whole book, but so far I am impressed with the information.
Rating: - The Bible of Wall Street
This book is a MUST for anyone interested in self-directed investing. You got to have it.
Rating: - simply: Awsome!
Graham and Dood, are still the gurus of investing, even though the book is decades old, it belongs on every finance persons shelves. ;)
Rating: 
- Kindle Edition Disappointing
While it is convenient to have a lot of Security Analysis on Kindle, I am disappointed that whole chapters are removed from the book and that, for Kindle readers, there is no CD with PDF filed included that one can refer to (these are referred to multiple times in the text).
Again, handy to have much of this great book on Kindle, but you are not getting the whole book, so it is a rip off for $42.00.
Rating: - Still relevant
This book is older than me a few times over and it's message--invest as though you are buying the whole company, there is no good overvalued issue, invest pessimistically, an attractive issue is better than an atttractive company and among other ideas, analysis as precedent over speculation and trends--still works today.
