Corporate Finance for Business is a
pedagogically innovative and interactive text that introduces and develops core corporate
finance concepts in a way that will capture the imagination of business and management
students.
Offering an in-depth examination of the key
areas of the field, authors John-Paul Marney and Heather Tarbert provide accessible
coverage of both conceptual and technical material. The text features interesting
illustrations, topical examples, and real-life cases that help students engage with the
material. Each chapter begins with a carefully developed and integrated running case study
that follows a fictional company from start-up to takeover and demonstrates the practical
applications of theoretical and technical concepts.
Featuring an exceptionally fluid and lively
writing style, Corporate Finance for Business employs an "active learning"
approach that incorporates case-study questions, reflective questions and activities,
end-of-chapter practice questions, and suggestions for presentations and group work. In
addition, it reflects the increasingly international nature of corporate finance (by using
examples and case studies with a global dimension) and also acknowledges the social and
ethical dimensions of the field.
