Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Adams, former president of the University of Michigan and currently an economics professor there, and Brock, a professor of economics at Miami University in Ohio, present a very readable book on mergers and acquisitions, a major concern in international business and economics. They are shown to be a game with various players, scores, and results. The roles of profit, greed, smarts, and the personalities of such notables as T. Boone Pickens, Carl Icahn, and other raiders and CEO's are examined, along with the successes and failures of specific cases. Analysis of the concept, looking at who benefits and who loses and the impact of public policy, also is discussed. A comprehensive book on a timely subject.
- Steven J. Mayover, Free Lib. of Philadelphia
