John Bollinger's Short List of Investing Books:

This list is not meant to be comprehensive; rather it is a list of "interesting" books, books that will reward you for having spent some time with them. Many "classic" and "important" books are missing from this list; while they may be worthwhile, they did not fit our purpose. Where I list an edition other than the current edition, I have done so deliberately as it is often the case that earlier editions are simply better. Some of these books are hard to find, so be sure to check your library or the library of the Market Technicians Association, which is now housed at Baruch College in NYC. Where the book is available at Amazon, we have included a link for your convenience. www.abe.com and www.alibris.com are two important online sources for hard to find books.
