Somewhat controversially, Gad makes the point that value and growth investing are much more similar than most investors think -- value investors look for growth in the companies in which they invest. He then walks readers through the pitfalls that most investors fall victim too -- most of which involve not really understanding the margin of safety and how it is applied.
