Damodaran Books - Difference?
I am looking to purchase Damodaran books on Valuation, but he seems to have a few similar titles:
1) On Valuation: Security Analysis for Investment and Corporate Finance (2nd edition) 2) Investment Valuation: Tools & Techniques for Valuing any Asset 3) The Dark Side of Valuation 4) The Little Book on Valuation
The first 2 seem repetitive - should I go with one or the other? The last two seem interesting for special situations / brief review. Has anyone read some/all of these and can recommend which are worthwhile?
Also, how do these compare to Valuation by McKinsey?
I own Investment Valuation and the McKinsey book. They are both good, however for me the Damodaran text was more useful in the earlier years of my career as a granular handbook for the day-to-day valuation work I was doing. The McKinsey book was more high level and focused more on the qualitative aspects of valuation and business analysis, which I found more useful once I started reviewing and guiding other people's valuation work.
Thanks for the input - sounds like McKinsey is something to read later down the road. Is there a real difference between "On Valuation" and "Investment Valuation" by Damoradan that you know of? Will likely go with one or the other if they cover the same topics.
