### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for understanding how to think like Warren Buffet
*by A***E on 31 May 2017*

Seen this recommended everywhere and now I know why. A great little read if you want to understand how Warren Buffet was 'made' and the roots of his success. A much more balanced portrait that those which just concentrate on his financial performance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great read and informative
*by H***Y on 7 April 2013*

Roger Lowenstein tells the interesting story of Buffett, his family, friends and business associates while highlighting the decision points he made throughout his career which made him so successful. Plenty of lessons to learn about Buffett's investment strategy in an easy to read format.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gives nice insight in Buffet's philosophy
*by B***G on 28 February 2003*

I like this book. It is not about Buffet's investment methodology, but about his life and especially his investment philosophy. By describing both the personal and business life of Buffett, the author tells us a lot about Buffett's way of thinking. I can't tell you if this book is better than other biographies of Buffet, but this one is complete and especially interesting for those who study Buffet's methodology of investing. I think the author is a little bit harsh on contemporary finance theory and it is funny when he accuses Buffett of confusing intrinsic and bookvalue in a certain investment decision in the 60's. However, I hope the author is working on a second edition, because this story ends in 1995 and what happened the last eight years with Berkshire Hathaway, the company of Buffet, is interesting, just as this book.
