This book is taught in an excellent format for understanding the foundational and fundamental concepts of finance. The authors did an outstanding job with how this text is organized. It's also very simple in the explanation of concepts. Some finance books are written as if they were disssertations. This book brings the concepts down to the common man. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking to start graduate study in finance.

I am currently enrolled in the CFA program (Level II candidate), and this book was used for my first corporate finance class. I must say that I was a bit turned off at first by the amount of colorful pictures and charts the Brigham book contained under the assumption that the more staid the book was, the less gimmicks it had and the better it was (like the Brealey-Myers book). However, I was repeatedly struck by how conscise Brighams' explanations and examples were. The book not only had exhaustive coverage, but it was very well-written. The vignettes at the beginning of each of the chapter really shows a good application of the chapter's lesson in the real world.

When ever I come across a question concerning finance, I almost always reach for the Brigham and Houston book first--it's that good.

One of the best books in finance. It's very clear and couldn't be simpler. This book is an excellent choice for students who are beginning to learn finance. I highly recommend it. All the books of these authors are great.

though it is a used edition, the book is in good shape. And it just took five days to arrive, just in time for my financial accounting classes

I rated this 5 stars - but I am rating the vendor, not the item. They are so friendly and helpful. It turned out this was the incorrect textbook, and I had to return it. The response from the vendor was very quick, and very helpful. The refund was processed as soon as the textbook was received. I appreciate their understanding in the error (the school gave me the wrong ISBN) and their prompt attention to this matter. I would definitely purchase items from this vendor again. Thank you!!

This book is so confusing that it will not even make a good reference book. The poorly written chapters with poor overall structure will make you want to return this book in a heartbeat. Only buy this book if a professor *requires* you to buy it.

It has been 29 days since I ordered my textbook, it has never arrived, and the seller will not respond to my e-mails...very poor service!
