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.
