Hands-on Textbook for Analysis ?

Hello, I am wondering if anyone has in mind a textbook or other document that is a practical real life guide in equity analysis? Thank you

“Valuation: Measuring and Managing the Value of Companies” http://www.amazon.com/Valuation-Measuring-Managing-Companies-Finance/dp/0470424656/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1318256726&sr=8-1 I am currently about 120 pages in out of 800. Finding it extremely useful. I only have time to read it for 30minutes per day so it’s going to take me a few months to finish however.

Perhaps a bit simplified but if you were to read this, you would have a good understanding of broad business topics. Highly recommended.

Thank you all
