Recenzje

'Professor Rau provides a concise, coherent introduction to corporate finance that should be essential reading for current and aspiring managers. The text is interjected with examples that borrow from pop culture, which are only accentuated by Professor Rau's biting wit and quirky charm.' Kathleen M. Kahle, University of Arizona
