Warren Buffet has said that investors need only look at his operating companies to understand his investment approach. This book provides them with that exclusive look. Berkshire Hathaway insider, Robert Miles draws upon his own experiences and those of Berkshire executives, to provide a look at the Berkshire culture and its management principles.

"Everyone knows Warren is the greatest investor of our time. . . .This book for the first time captures his genius as a manager."
—Jack Welch The first book to reveal the investment and management strategies of the Berkshire Hathaway all-star management team. Much has been written about Warren Buffett and his investment philosophy; little has been made public about the inside management of Berkshire Hathaway. With a market cap exceeding 100 billion , Berkshire Hathaway has a market value surpassing many icons of American business such as Dell, AT&T, Disney, Ford, Gillette, American Express, and GM. Drawing on his personal experiences as well as those of Berkshire's chief executives, officers, and directors interviewed for this book, Berkshire insider Robert P. Miles provides a unique look at the Berkshire Hathaway culture and its management principles.
