About the book
This is not another cut-and-paste of Warren Buffett's letters to shareholders of Berkshire-Hathaway, nor a biography filled with anecdotes about Buffett. Instead, it is designed to teach you Buffett's extraordinarily successful system of business perspective investing - from the mathematical equations that assist him in making investment decisions to the actual companies that have captured his interest. Buffettology is a detailed analysis of how Buffett commits capital to investment only from a business perspective, the strategy that gives him the discipline to exploit the stock market's folly. It answers the questions - that for years seem to have eluded investment professionals and Buffettologists - about how Warren Buffett turned $105,000 into $20 billion and became the world's most famous investor.
