Solid, thorough review of the mutual fund industry and how it functions. As familiar as I am with mutual funds, I nonetheless gained an appreciation of the complexity of running such funds. A helpful read for the professional financial advisor and the investor who wants to understand the mutual fund industry from the inside-out.
