Corporate Financial Management

Target Market: MBA or Undergraduate Corporate Finance Courses or  Financial Management

Emery, Finnery, Stowe is the only corporate finance text to bridge the gap between theory and practice with a unique pedogical framework, and the expertise of a researcher, practitioner, and teacher.

Instructors and professors agree that bringing real word examples into the corp. fin course is paramount, but doing this in a way that harnesses the theory is tough.  E/F/S connects the theory with practice like no other text, not only due to the fact that each author brings a special expertise to the table, but through the 12 principles that tie the texts concepts together.
