Book Reviews of Corporate Finance, 8th Edition
Book Review: Comprehensive and Very Good.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very good book. I actually decided to buy a used copy after I took the original course as part of my MBA curriculum. The book is extensive, so the instructor did jump over certain chapters, but because it is comprehensive, it is a good book for my library. Good expamples and exercises. There is no such thing as the perfect texbook since people learn in different ways and people can want to achieve different things from the same class. If you are a finance major, you may have different needs than that of the accounting or MIS major who is taking this as core requirement. The bottom line is that the book does a good job of balancing the approach.
Summary of Corporate Finance, 8th Edition
Corporate Finance, by Ross, Westerfield, and Jaffe is a popular textbook that emphasizes the modern fundamentals of the theory of finance, while providing contemporary examples to make the theory come to life. The authors aim to present corporate finance as the working of a small number of integrated and powerful intuitions, rather than a collection of unrelated topics. They develop the central concepts of modern finance: arbitrage, net present value, efficient markets, agency theory, options, and the trade-off between risk and return, and use them to explain corporate finance with a balance of theory and application. The well-respected author team is known for their clear, accessible presentation of material that makes this text an excellent teaching tool. Brad Jordan, known for his successful work on the RWJ Fundamentals and Essentials books, contributed to this edition. His influence will be seen particularly in the writing style with smoother coverage of topics, and the increased quality in the problem material.Finance Books
