This four-volume collection contains a comprehensive selection of over 70 modern papers in empirical corporate finance. The volumes are arranged by subject matter, reflecting the broad stages in the life-cycle of the firm, starting with venture capital and initial public offering, and then moving on to events that characterize corporate maturity: dividend policy, investment policy, coroprate governance issues, and financing strategy. The volume concludes with sections on takeovers and bankruptcy.
