This unique author team - one academic, one a full-time financial practitioner - presents the latest in financial theory while maintaining a strong real-world connection. Engaging students with humor and an attractive layout, the text is student-focused yet does not water down content.

Its consistent approach focuses on value- what creates value, what destroys it, how value is measured, and how value and risk are related.
