I am the author of the book. The book is a beginner's guide to the stock market. It discusses what stocks are; how they are bought and sold; how to choose good stocks; how stocks bought for long term can be profitable. Also discussed are the terms frequently used in connection with stocks, terms like PE ratio, earnings per share, the Dow Jones average, and many more. This is a small, soft cover book. It is now out of print and copies are rare and hard to find. I have recently written an updated book entitled Investing for Retirement. I could supply a picture of both books if you wish.
