Recenzje

"Fantastic... Rebecca has taken a dry, complex subject and somehow turned it into a very readable book. Pretty much every investment has been included, and any reader should feel comfortable talking about quite technical investments after reading this. Essential reading for any budding investor - and even old hands will learn a thing or two!" Carl Reader, director of accountancy firm d&t and author of 'The Startup Coach' and 'The Franchising Handbook'
