Reviews for The Daily Telegraph Guide to Investing: The Straightforward Guide That Professional Investors Don't Want You to Have

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' * Understanding the world of investment isn't easy even in calm markets. At times like this, Rebecca Burn-Callander's guide is more vital than ever. A must read for anyone thinking of taking the plunge. * James Quinn, Group Business Editor at the Daily and Sunday Telegraph * This is an exceptionally thorough book that gets right to the heart of investing. Hardworking people are becoming more financially savvy, and this book offers a detailed starters' guide on everything from property investment to bonds, and even LEGO. It will appeal to amateur investors in their twenties, and to those reaching retirement age who want to take advantage of the recent pension freedoms. * Elizabeth Anderson, Business Editor, i newspaper *
