Dance Of The Money Bees: A Professional Speaks Frankly On Investing: Revised Edition (210 pages, $19.95 paper, 2000, ISBN 0870341456), by John Train, published by Fraser Publishing. "Only through deep understanding and superior tactics can the investor hope to preserve even part of what he has earned, and it gets harder every year... In preserving capital the right attitude is indispensable. You must be passive in deciding to buy, but aggressive in searching out the values and in digging all the way down to the rock of reality... The safe time to invest is when people are discouraged or desperate, and the safe thing to buy is what isn't wanted."
