1. Beginners should read: Andrew Tobias, The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need Then read: Anything by Peter Lynch -- start with One Up On Wall Street Almost every book about Buffett. Start with The Essays of Warren Buffett or The Warren Buffet Way or Buffettology. Also books by his partner Charlie Munger. Joel Greenblatt, The Little Book that Beat the Market Joel Greenblatt, You Can Be a Stock Market Genius Pat Dorsey, The Five Rules for Successful Stock Investing David & Tom Gardner, The Motley Fool Investment Guide Philip Fisher, Common Stocks Before you consider yourself fully educated, read: Benjamin Graham, The Intelligent Investor -- get the new edition with notes by Jason Zweig Burton Malkiel, A Random Walk Down Wall Street (not that I totally believe the efficient market hypothesis, but it'll make you take big claims with a grain of salt)
2. try "The Five Rules For Successful Stock Investing" by Pat Dorsey. He is the director of stock analysis when the book was published. And this book is Morningstar's Guide to Building Wealth and Winning in the Market too. I myself find these five rules is so important in stock investing, especially for beginners who want things to get started. Well, that is just my review.
