    this book is a fraud on the reader

    Readers should be warned that the paperback edition is a fraud and a ripoff. It is not the current edition of the classic and contains obsolete and misleading information and lacks the revisions and modernizations of the 9th edition. Further more it is a ripoff of the intellectual property of Edwards & Magee which is preserved in the official 9th edition. Don't buy this act of intellectual piracy.
    W.H.C. Bassetti

    Excellent Dow Theory Explanation

    Robert Edwards description and analysis of the Dow Theory is, as Professor Bassetti so astutely states on page 48, a ¿magisterial presentation¿. I am proud to have been asked to add my interpretation to the update since Dr. Edwards death. Believe it or not, the Dow Theory is alive and well in the 21st Century and this book will help you understand why.

    This has got to be the best book I have ever read

    I deals with a lot in every area / I have just started reading it and they use mostly trend line analysis, although there is more than that in the book the // I would recommend this book for any investor, although it is a very 'condensed book' and takes time to read the 650 pages, it does talk about Dow theory some but not a lot of time spent, they have upgraded this book from it's origional printing so I probably would not be one to buy an older version as this was published in 2000 and there is a insert from January of 2001 so this is not a 'crusty old book' I would consider this on my top #1 list of books, Reversal patterns are discussed as well as 'shorts' 'consolidations' 'support and resistance' 'trendlines and channels' 'major trendlines' 'gaps' and TONS MORE
