"Mr. Buffett made a smart choice when he chose Alice Schroeder as his Boswell. Yes, he found an appreciative biographer with whom he seems to have a warm rapport. But he also found a writer able to keep pace with the wild swerves in the Buffett story and the intricacies of Mr. Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway business empire. Ms. Schroeder is as insightful about her subject’s precise anticipation of current financial crises as she is about his quirky personal story. And she is a clear explicator of fiscal issues. This sprawling, colorful biography will mesmerize anyone interested in who Mr. Buffett is or how he got that way....Fascinating." Publisher's noteHighlighted by extensive interviews with Buffett, as well as family, friends, and colleagues, a detailed portrait of the life and career of legendary investment guru Warren Buffett sheds new light on the man, as well as on the work, ideas, business principles, strategies, and no-nonsense insights that have guided his phenomenally successful business endeavors. 1,000,000 first printing. AnnotationIn this somewhat unique biography, business writer Alice Schroeder draws on her access to papers as well as many interviews with businessman Warren Buffet as she provides a comprehensive, humanizing portrait of the public and private side of her subject.

By Curious
This is sure to be an interesting read, as the renowned investment guru who is
now, I believe, also the richest man in the world (ahead of Bill Gates, even)
opens his life to the public for the first time. He has always seemed so
charismatic in his work Im sure his life story, if well written, will be
incredibly interesting.
