 Practical, accessible May 08, 2007
This book is a valuable guide to the real world issues of M&A's and Corporate Restructuring. Instead of dwelling too much on financial theory it provides informative descriptions of the options available to CEO's, CFO's, corporate boards and shareholders, as well as the ethical and tactical issues they will face. Language and structure both are very accessible, making this book equally useful as a study text or reference book.
I can recommend this book to both finance majors and laypeople.

good insight in the M&A world Dec 27, 2003
This book gives the reader a very good insight in the world of mergers and acquisitions + corporate restructurings due to M&A. It covers all possible aspects of M&A activities, all very well explained. My opinion is that this book is especially useful if you are a beginner within M&A, as I was when I first read it.
It provides even more insights into the matter by stating clear examples of mergers and acquisitions.
This book is the one to buy if you are taking your first steps in the world of M&A...

The Premier Merger Book Apr 28, 2002
This book is an excellent pragmatic treatment of the topic of mergers. It surveys the relevant research and combines it with many practical examples to demonstrate its relevance. The abundant case studies serve to drive home each major point. The topics covered feature a broad international focus throughout the book. Given the fact that mergers, acquisitions and corporate restructurings are now an international phenomena, we need a book which covers the topic from such a focus rather than just focusing on a U.S.-oriented treatment. The other major advantage of this book over other merger books is its chapters on valuation. Practitioners will find this invaluable. I would strongly recommend this book to all interested in the field. Kerry Monahan
