A good fundamental investment book dealing with the tech sec

This is a very good book. It is current and is an excellent introduction to the technical arena. The author splits the book into two parts starting with investing fundamentals and then branching out into respective sectors. In the first part he takes the reader through the do's and don't of successful investing and attempts to "take the mystery out of the market." In the second part Trapunski then focuses on the individual segments and give the reader an idea of how they developed, where we are now, and what is to come in the future. What I found interesting was the inclusion of aerospace and biotechnology as profiled sectors and in some cases a Canadian point of view from some of the individuals interviewed for the book. It is time well spent, and I recommend it not for specific reference to certain companies, but for good general investment knowledge in technology stocks
