Summary: Lock, STOCK, and Barrel
Review: "How Stocks Work," a singularly efficient reference into the world of stocks, was written by celebrated financial author, Dr. David L. Scott. The book is systematically arranged from the concise preview-summaries at the beginning of each chapter, to the discussion of the topics in bold-faced question and answer style, to the indexed listing of subjects. Stock values, stock investments, special tax implications, among other stockholding matters, are treated completely and judiciously. The section examining mutual funds significantly heightend my awaresness of certain investments. The book concludes with specific guidance pertaining to Internet, radio-TV, library, and brokerage firm services available to investment families. "How Stocks Work" should be a desktop manual for both the experienced and the inexperienced stockholder. Unquestionably, Dr. Scott has again succeeded in conveying sense and sensibility toward our investments...lock, STOCK, and barrel.

Summary: A Fun Book to Read
Review: This is a fun book to read. Though entertaining, it is also educational and will serve you well when you are ready to invest in stocks. In fact, it is packed with important information that is easily assimilated. This book is so interesting that my spouse read it and became interested in the investment process. This has saved me hours in trying to explain how the market works
Strongly recommed this book for family reading. Especially if you have children in high school,college or just entering the work force. A terrific book to take on vacation and read while in the air, at the beach or on ship board.
