“In The Great Minds of Investing, William Green has brought to life a treasure trove of wisdom from the world’s most highly-regarded investors. Leveraging unprecedented personal access, he captures not only the essence of their investment wisdom but also the life lessons of these remarkable personalities. Truly unique is Green’s close collaboration with world-renowned photographer Michael O’Brien whose portraits add a wonderful aesthetic dimension to the book, transforming it into a work of art. The result is a rich and layered book — something readers will treasure for decades and return to again and again for inspiration and wisdom.”

“This is a beautifully written book that offers a rare depth of insight into the lives and minds of the greatest investors of our time. And it is a showcase for William Green who has drawn deeply on 20 years of experience as a writer and editor for publications like Time, Forbes, Money, Bloomberg Markets and Fortune. During that time, he has spent countless hours interviewing many of the world’s great investors. This book benefits from Green’s desire, through careful contemplation, to understand the essential aspects of habit, personality and temperament that make these great investors who they are. This book needs to be on every serious investor’s bookshelf and should be reviewed and re-read regularly.”

“The Great Minds of Investing is one of the most profound collections of investment insights and gripping photographs I have come across during my 30-plus years of value investing. Michael O’Brien has captured the spirit and essence of the characters featured in the book. As sharp an interpretation as O’Brien’s photographs provide, so too does William Green’s written expression of the investors’ varied backgrounds, philosophies and approaches. Each profile features aspects often not known and often not expected from the investors. This makes for as startling and engaging a reaction to the written word as that which the reader takes from the photographs. Altogether an elegant and thoroughly engaging treatment of a subset of today’s finest investors. I heartily recommend the book to all with an interest in the craft of investing.”
