Product Description
“Graham’s ideas inspired the investment community for nearly a century.”–Smart Money
“Graham’s method of investing is as relevant today as it was when he first espoused it during the Roaring Twenties.”–Investor’s Business Daily
Benjamin Graham’s revolutionary theories have influenced and inspired investors for nearly 70 years. First published in 1934, his Security Analysis is still considered to be the value investing bible for investors of every ilk. Yet, it is the second edition of that book, published in 1940 and long since out of print, that many experts–including Graham protégé Warren Buffet–consider to be the definitive edition. This facsimile reproduction of that seminal work makes available to investors, once again, the original thinking of “this century’s (and perhaps history’s) most important thinker on applied portfolio investment.”

The Long-Awaited Reprint of Graham and Dodd’s Masterful First Revision
The first edition of Security Analysis, published in 1934, forever changed the theory and practice of successful investing. Yet the remainder of that tumultuous decade brought unprecedented upheaval to the financial world, compelling Benjamin Graham and David Dodd to produce a comprehensively revised second edition.
It is that edition, out of print for decades, that you now hold in your hands. Security Analysis, Second Edition, published in 1940, is considered by many (including legendary Graham student Warren Buffett) to be vastly superior to the first. Yet after three subsequent editions and over six decades, the insightful and instructive second edition could be found only in rare bookshops and closely-guarded private collections.
McGraw-Hill, the book’s original publisher, is honored to publish Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition. Identical in every meaningful aspect to the classic original, this is the long-awaited book that set the tone for decades of value investors. Let it provide you with a greater understanding of this country’s financial heritage, along with timeless value investing insights that have proven relevant and profitable in all types of markets and financial environments–and will never go out of style.
