Warren Edward Buffett is an American businessman, investor, and philanthropist who currently serves as the co-founder, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. As a result of his investment success, Buffett is one of the best-known investors in the world. As of April 2024, he had a net worth of $139 billion, making him the ninth-richest person in the world. Buffett was born in Omaha, Nebraska. The son of US congressman and businessman Howard Buffett, he developed an interest in business and investing during his youth. He entered the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1947 before graduating from the University of Nebraska at 19. He went on to graduate from Columbia Business School, where he molded his investment philosophy around the concept of value investing pioneered by Benjamin Graham. He attended New York Institute of Finance to focus on his economics background and soon pursued a business career. He later began various business ventures and investment partnerships, including one with Graham. He created Buffett Partnership Ltd. in 1956 and his investment firm eventually acquired a textile manufacturing firm, Berkshire Hathaway, assuming its name to create a diversified holding company. Buffett emerged as the company's chairman and majority shareholder in 1970. In 1978, fellow investor and long-time business associate Charles T. Munger joined Buffett as vice-chairman. Since 1970, Buffett has presided as the chairman and largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway, one of America's foremost holding companies and world's leading corporate conglomerates. He has been referred to as the "Oracle" or "Sage" of Omaha by global media as a result of having accumulated a massive fortune derived from his business and investment success. He is noted for his adherence to the principles of value investing, and his frugality despite his wealth. Buffett has pledged to give away 99 percent of his fortune to philanthropic causes, primarily via the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He founded the Giving Pledge in 2010 with Bill Gates, whereby billionaires pledge to give away at least half of their fortunes.

"As in previous editions of The Essays of Warren Buffett, this one retains the architecture and philosophy of the original edition but adds selections from Warren Buffett's most recent annual shareholder letters. All the letters are woven together into a fabric that reads as a complete and coherent narrative of a sound business and investment philosophy. As an aid to all readers, and to enable readers of the previous editions to see what is new in this one, a disposition table at the end of the book shows the various places in this collection where selections from each year's letter appear. Footnotes throughout indicate the year of the annual report from which essays are taken. To avoid interrupting the narrative flow, omissions of text within excerpts are not indicated by ellipses or other punctuation. This new edition is called for not because anything has changed about the fundamentals of Buffett's sound business and investment philosophy but because articulation of that philosophy is always delivered in the context of contemporary events and business conditions so periodic updating is warranted to maintain its currency"--

众所周知,巴菲特每年都会亲自执笔给伯克希尔的股东写一封信,迄今已写了52年。每一封致股东信都洋洋洒洒数万言,信中回顾公司业绩、投资策略,还会就许多热点话题表达观点。1996年,巴菲特授权劳伦斯·坎宁安教授编撰他的信件,并出版了超级畅销书《巴菲特致股东的信》,书中全部文字原汁原味地保留巴菲特第一人称的叙述,将其投资思想与管理智慧分为公司治理、财务与投资、投资替代品、普通股、兼并与收购、估值与会计、税务等主题。从此坎宁安教授成为巴菲特的御用编辑,并得到巴菲特的授权进入伯克希尔进行深度调研采访,并创作姊妹篇《超越巴菲特的伯克希尔》一书,专门论述伯克希尔的经营管理之道。相较于前三版,《巴菲特致股东的信:投资者和公司高管教程》第4版保留了原来的架构和哲学,增加了巴菲特最新的年报内容。这些新增的内容被编入了书中的相应篇章,它们有机地融为一体,丝毫不影响读者在阅读过程中获得对于稳健企业和投资哲学的整体印象。为了帮助读者区分书中哪些部分是新增的内容,在书末的“注释”部分标注了这些内容是选自哪些年度的致股东的信件。20年来,本书四版获得了无数赞誉,但最有价值的莫过于巴菲特本人的评价:“坎宁安做了一项伟大的工作,他整理呈现了我们的理念。这本书比任何一本关于我的传记都要好,如果让我选一本书去读,那必定是这一本。
