Lawrence A. Cunningham

Corporate-governance scholar and longtime George Washington University law professor; edits The Essays of Warren Buffett and writes on Berkshire and quality investing.

The Essays of Warren Buffett reorganises decades of Berkshire shareholder letters by subject - governance, accounting, mergers, valuation - turning scattered annual commentary into a usable manual. The later books extend the analysis to Berkshire's decentralised structure and to the traits that make a business durable enough to hold for decades.
