That's the general idea behind The Complete Finance Companion: The Latest in Financial Principles and Practice form the World's Best Finance Schools. This single volume features the writings of financial experts from the top two business schools in the United States, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago, as well as from the London School of Business. The Complete Finance Companion is structured in three core modules: corporate finance, investments and financial markets. In 13 chapters, more than 50 experts look at every aspect of finance, including risk and return, corporate finance, accounting, investments and many other topics. -- Financial Planning, June 1998
