Excellent compilation of the books you've learnt from, Basantjee.
 
One must also keep in mind the application of text book knowledge as you have nicely explained at http://www.theequitydesk.com/text_books.asp

I have read One up on Wall Street, Beating the street, Buffet: The making of an American Capitalist, and Rich Dad Poor Dad.

i have
Reminisces of a Stock Operator with me right now, cant find time to
start reading ;-)

in addition to this, i would definitely recommend "The wisdom of crowds" - its
a fasincating insight into emotions and behavorial patterns, and how we are swayed
by the behavior of majority of others.

Basant,

Thanks for the great compilation of books.

I have read three books from your list and trying to read other books.

There is another book, I am reading now. "Poor Charlie's Almanac" written by Charles Munger. This man is only second to Warren Buffet. You can try this book. I find the book very interesting and gives great insight to value investing. You can also realise how value investing and human values go together and complimentary to each other.

Shashi Praharaj,

Mumbai

The Tao Jones Averages A Guide to whole-brained investing by Bennet Goodspeed is excellent. An interesting point from the book-Jim Rogers is predominantly left-brained-analytically inclined and not emotionally attached to his investments.

  Also The Economist is superlative reading for its style and depth on whats going on in the world economy-I ignore the politics part because
reading the business part itself every week requires some effort.Rakesh Jhunjhunwalla regularly reads it.

By the way kulman ji you are not a secular man in our political term (Cong. & Leftist) why did`nt you mention "QURAN" with "GITA & BIBLE". Mind you I have written QURAN with respect so please dont take this other wise, this clarification is important for my safety.

Reetesh I changed it and yes as secular fundamental investors we should have had the Quran but the space in the title bar seemed was short.
