巴菲特推荐的阅读书单

I recently compiled a list of Buffett's favorite books on investing. This book is a far more comprehensive list, of books recommended by Warren.

Big H/T to http://warrenbuffettresource.wordpress.com/the-man/books-recommended/ for putting together this fabulous, and lengthy list.

Over Warren Buffett’s lifetime, “The Oracle of Omaha” has suggested several books that he thinks is valuable to the investor. The list consists of a wide spectrum of books including science, politics, investing, economics and more. While I have not read all these books they do not need my endorsement, as the oracle himself has recommended them. However, I will provide a small summary of the books that I am more familiar with.
