Editorial Review:
Product Description:
The clear market leader in the corporate finance course, this text filled a very definite need for a MODERN corporate finance text back in 1983 when the first edition was published. It is known for its intuitive, conversational style and for being able to tie together many of the important ideas in corporate finance. The author's discussions and illustrations are unique due to the depth of detail blended with a distinct sense of humor. This new edition will continue to be authoritative and student friendly but will also carry stronger, modern coverage reflected by current examples and data as well as unique emphasis upon agency issues.

I like ... Read More

- Poorly written book - will not recommendThis book is very difficult to understand even with a basic background in finance and economics. There is no structure, no clear definitions or definitions at all. I do not understand why the majority of instructors chose this text. There even are errors in the solutions for the practice questions.

- Excellent BookI think that this book is an excellent corporate finance book. If one person has difficulties understanding such a book written in a very clear language, then he or she better doesn't study finance or economics.The fact that the book is used as the required text for the corporate finance courses in the majority of the best business schools proves its importance.At the end of chapter problems are very useful too.Therefore one should also buy the solutions manual to check her own solutions.
