Corporate finance theory

Corporate Finance Theory provides a thorough synthesis of the most important current research in corporate finance in a clear, non-mathematical writing style. It breaks new ground both in the organization of the text material and its "comparative corporate finance" approach, which integrates international and American capital market theory and empirical evidence. The 1,400 academic and practitioner articles cited in full-length references provide the reader with an understanding of the "intellectual architecture" underlying modern finance. Coupled with extensive footnotes throughout, these citations should prove useful to professionals who want or need references for specific finance topics, since multiple references (in both academic and popular publications) are provided for each topic addressed.
