Essentials of Corporate Finance
by McGraw Hill Higher Education (Paperback)
"Essentials of Corporate Finance, 6/e" by Ross, Westerfield, and Jordan is written to convey the most important concepts and principles of corporate finance at a level that is approachable for a wide audience. The authors retain their modern approach to finance, but have distilled the subject down to the essential topics in 18 chapters. They believe that understanding the "why" is just as important, if not more so, than understanding the "how," especially in an introductory course.Three basic themes emerge as their central focus: an emphasis on intuition - separate and explain the principles at work on a common sense, intuitive level before launching into specifics. Underlying ideas are discussed first in general terms, then followed by specific examples that illustrate in more concrete terms how a financial manager might proceed in a given situation; a unified valuation approach - Net Present Value is treated as the basic concept underlying corporate finance. Every subject the ...

Web of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System and How We Can Break Free
by Third Millennium Press (Paperback)
EXPLODING THE MYTHS ABOUT MONEY Our money system is not what we have been led to believe. The creation of money has been "privatized," or taken over by a private money cartel. Except for coins, all of our money is now created as loans advanced by private banking institutions -- including the private Federal Reserve. Banks create the principal but not the interest to service their loans. To find the interest, new loans must continually be taken out, expanding the money supply, inflating prices -- and robbing you of the value of your money. Web of Debt unravels the deception and presents a crystal clear picture of the financial abyss towards which we are heading. Then it explores a workable alternative, one that was tested in colonial America and is grounded in the best of American economic thought, including the writings of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln. If you care about financial security, your own or the nation's, you should read this book.

Fundamentals of Corporate Finance: Standard Edition
by McGraw-Hill (Hardcover)
"Fundamentals of Corporate Finance (FCF)" was originally written with one strongly held principle in mind - Corporate Finance should be developed in terms of a few integrated, powerful ideas. RWJ took a hard look at what was truly important and useful; in doing so, they eliminated topics of dubious relevance, downplayed purely theoretical issues, and minimized the use of extensive and elaborate calculations to illustrate points that are either intuitively obvious or of limited practical use. As a result of this process, three basic themes became the central focus of FCF: An Emphasis on Intuition, A Unified Valuation Approach, and A Managerial Focus. This new edition pays special attention to the entire teaching and learning package, and refining the features and supplements that has made this book so popular. We have focused additional time and resources to the technology elements of the package - MHLA, website, self-study software, and instructor's CD-ROM - while maintaining our ...
