Review The New Online Investor, 2nd Edition / John Wiley & Sons:The online revolution is turning private investment into a mainstream activity, widening and deepening share ownership and redistributing market power. In the US, the process is well underway, and the UK and Europe are not too far behind. Peter Temple can justifiably claim to have been one of the first on the Internet investment scene. Online Investor was first published in 1997 and with Stephen Eckett's Investing Online was one of the forerunners. If Internet years are really measurable in months, as people say, this revised and updated version is long overdue. The New Online Investor will "help private investors gain access to cheap tools that can help improve their investment performance. " As a full-on guide to navigating and profiting from the Web, it is up there with the best of them. Access and information are the key words for clued-up private investors and Peter Temple's accessible style will help tap into that money-making edge. The first quarter of the book caters for Web beginners. It is basic, but will prove useful for would-be online Buffett's yet to suss out the Internet. [+]From there on, the financial information comes thick and fast. There is excellent work on Web-based research using bulletin boards, newsgroups and online services and essential information on accessing share prices, company data and software online. Later chapters address the share dealing process itself as well as introducing some of the more adventurous securities and derivative products available for online trading. The clean and sober page design contrasts with the more in-your-face style of other online publications and the pearls of wisdom in the text occasionally require digging out, but it is worth the effort. Temple expresses clearly and concisely the fundamentals of trading wisdom; "value rather than price is what the investment process is all about," "getting swayed by the reactions of the crowd is the antithesis of what makes a successful investor. " The New Online Investor deserves to become one of the cornerstones of every serious beginner's online library. -Iain Campbell.

Review The Internet Bubble: Inside the Overvalued World of High-tech Stocks - and What You Need to Know to Avoid the Coming Shakeout / HarperBusiness:Canals. Railways. Cars. Computers. The Internet. Each represented revolutionary shifts in the way people would live and do business. Each saw a corresponding rush of investors to get in on this great new investment opportunity. Each saw a lot of investors go broke. In The Internet Bubble, Anthony Perkins and Michael Perkins, founding editors of The Red Herring, look at it this way: In the early 20th century, there were more than 500 automobile companies in the US. Now how many are there? Same with the new Internet companies, the Perkinses predict. [+]A few will grow into profitable businesses in 10 or 20 years, but even then their stocks may not be worth much more than their 1999 prices. They argue that buying an Internet stock today is really nothing more than gambling that someone else will come along and buy it from you for more money. The book includes an overview of the biggest players in the Internet explosion, the market mania for Internet stocks and profiles of companies such as Amazon, Yahoo! and At Home. The authors also interview venture capitalists who help new companies get off the ground and the investment bankers who help them go public. And while they don't pretend that they know when the Internet bubble will burst, or what the damage will be, they are convinced that most. com companies will never make a dime. The book concludes with some thoughts about investing in this climate, and argues that ignoring the Internet may be as dangerous to your portfolio as investing too much. Some guidelines about product cycles and diversification appear, but the biggest rule seems to be: Don't be the one holding the hot potato at the end of the game. -Lou Schuler, Amazon. com.

Review The Age of Access: How the Shift from Ownership to Access Is Transforming Modern Life (Penguin Business Library) / Penguin Books Ltd:He's been called the postmodern Chicken Licken, but it so happens that the sky really is falling down. Jeremy Rifkin pulls the plug on the trend away from property ownership and free public life in The Age of Access. As usual, he's a bit ahead of the curve-most of us aren't yet fully immersed in the sea of leased products and packaged experiences that he sees awaiting us. Still, his eerie visions of a world of gatekeepers paying each other for access to nearly every aspect of human life brings a chilling new meaning to the phrase "pay to play" and should spark some debate over our new cultural revolution. Using examples from business and government experiments with just-in-time access to goods and services and resource sharing, Rifkin defines a new society of renters too busy breaking the shackles of material possessions to mourn the passing of public property. Are we encouraging alienation or participation? Can we trust corporations with stewardship of our social lives? True to form, the author asks more questions than he answers-a sign of an open mind. If property is theft, leased access is extortion, and The Age of Access warns us of the complex changes coming in our relationships with our homes, our communities, and our world. -Rob Lightner.
