Investing The Last Liberal Art

Book • 2013

Robert G Hagstrom

In 'Investing: The Last Liberal Art', Robert G. Hagstrom delves into fundamental investing concepts by drawing from multiple fields outside of economics.

Inspired by Charlie Munger's 'latticework of mental models', Hagstrom argues that good investment decisions cannot be made solely on finance theory.

The book discusses how theories from physics, biology, sociology, psychology, philosophy, and literature can be applied to investing research.

It also includes a new chapter on mathematics and updates reflecting the economic developments since 2008.

The book emphasizes the importance of a broad education and critical thinking in investment performance.
