pp. viii, 127. "This book is designed to enable you to read financial statements intelligently. When you know what the figures mean, you have a sound basis for good business judgement. If you have precise information as to a company's present financial position and its past earnings record, you are better equipped to gauge its future possibilities. And this is the essential function and value of security analysis." - Preface. Copyright page code B-W indicates this copy to be a 1947 reprint of the 1937 first edition. Tight and square.
