Review title: Please don't recommend for classroom studies
Product review: Like others have mentioned, I have found this book to be extremely uninteresting and more of a literature review than a text for accounting or finance students. I am most frustrated by my institution for selecting this text because they assume this text is capable of teaching the concepts of M&A analysis. It most certainly would need far more clearly written examples along with the actual equations necessary to conduct valuation analysis. This is a terrible choice for classroom use, especially those classes where the accounting of M&A transactions will be tested on. If anyone is considering this text, please don't for the sake of your students!
