    Written 20 Years Ago... I still find it extremely relevant and valuable

    George Soros is well known for his financial market prowess and the enormous wealth he has accumulated as a result. This book, albeit written in the mid-80's, provides an insightful view into how and why he has been so successful. It leads you down the paths, winding and many, that start with a concept and end with a successful investment. I enjoyed it immensely and plan to read it many times to ensure its concepts are ingrained in my own investing methods. I purchased this book used from Wonder Book & Video. It exceeded my expectations as to the quality of the condition it was in. As I search for physical books (and music and videos) in the future I will always include them in my placed to look. Should you ever have occasion to check them out I suspect you will share my sentiment. Happy ...
