The art of investment - Alec Ellinger

Praise for the first edition: "It should be read by all who are interested in investment, from the most untutored to the investment manager of the big institution." –The South African Bankers' Journal

"... a writer obviously skilled in his subject." –The Bankers' Magazine

When The Art of Investment was first published in June 1955 technical analysis was still a new practice within Europe. The Art of Investment was the first book to introduce European readers to the use of charts and the techniques of technical analysis, relating these to the London stock market. The book, which is illustrated with more than 80 charts, proved extremely popular, reprinting in its first year and going through two further editions. The message that it conveys is as valuable today as when it was first written.
