Another reviewer complains that there's no "framework" here - Shockingly good. Another reviewer complains that there's no "framework" here. Thank God. Look, in some fields no matter how far you progress there's another framework - solid, concise, complex, interlocking body of knowledge - to be learned. Classical mechanics > electromagnetics > quantum, etc. More commonly in other fields there's some basic useful framework everyone should learn right away, but once that's mastered progress is all about filling your head with and deeply internalizing a huge number of relatively simple facts, stories, and patterns. (Of course academics and their imitators do not accept this reality and pretend instead that the structure of knowledge in micro, macro, or psych - don't even get me started on biases/heuristics popularizations - can be reduced to a series of neat interlocking frameworks.) Anyhow this book is packed dense with these useful chunks, and the more you've got stored away the more likely a light bulb of familiarity flickers in your head when you crack open a new 10-K. For example, there's this company called Clearone that I've followed awhile that makes puzzlingly high gross margins considering what they do - video conferencing equipment. But it clicked when I read this book's chapter on how friendly middlemen can create unusually strong businesses, i.e. optometrists always recommending a particular brand of high quality glasses because he cares not at all about price. Clearone sells to a friendly non-price sensitive middleman - big system integrators that do large scale technology installments for universities, corporations, hospitals, etc. Anyhow, the book is great, dense, legitimately useful, and minimally redundant with other investing books because it skips the usual routine of either romanticizing basic value investing concepts or trying to force fit some artificial framework on the tangled mess of knowledge that is useful to investing. Review: Great investing book - Great investing book about quality investing. Goes from theory to practice, still has valid examples of industries and companies, and characterizes the challenges in quality investing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0857195123 | | Best Sellers Rank | #505,377 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #65 in Investment Portfolio Management #350 in Introduction to Investing | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (533) | | Dimensions | 6.65 x 0.81 x 9.43 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 9780857195128 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0857195128 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 350 pages | | Publication date | January 5, 2016 | | Publisher | Harriman House | ## Images ![Quality Investing: Owning the best companies for the long term - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YZo72wUhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shockingly good.

Goes from theory to practice, still has valid examples of industries and companies, and characterizes the challenges in quality investing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Book *by J***L on June 25, 2016* The book was well written with plenty of examples. The book could have been a little deeper, but is good when taken at a high level. ## Frequently Bought Together - Quality Investing: Owning the best companies for the long term - Investing for Growth: How to make money by only buying the best companies in the world – An anthology of investment writing, 2010–20 - The Art of Quality Investing: How to invest in the best companies in the world --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24713811-quality-investing-owning-the-best-companies-for-the-long-term](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24713811-quality-investing-owning-the-best-companies-for-the-long-term) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
