Corporate Finance 2nd Edition, Jonathan Berk

Using the unifying valuation framework based on the Law of One Price, top researchers Jonathan Berk and Peter DeMarzo set the new standard for corporate finance textbooks. Corporate Finance blends coverage of time-tested principles and the latest advancements with the practical perspective of the financial manager. With this ideal melding of the core with modern topics, innovation with proven pedagogy, Berk and DeMarzo establish the new canon in finance.

The second edition reflects the constantly changing world of finance, including information on the financial crisis of 2007, new behavioral finance research, and updated practitioner interviews.

For programs and professors who would like a streamlined book that is specifically tailored to the topics covered in the first one-semester course, Corporate Finance: The Core 2nd edition is also available by Jonathan Berk and Peter DeMarzo.

I am not a "finance person" so my finance class was very challenging for me, and I had a lot of trouble understanding the textbook book recommended by professor. I decided to look at some other books at the library to see if there was something that was easier to understand. This book was much easier for me to understand.

I decided to buy the loose-leaf one so that I can carry around just the chapters that I need to read and not have to deal with a big heavy book. I stapled each chapter together and take just one chapter with me at a time so I can easily read it while waiting in line, while at the gym, etc. This makes it less tedious than having to sit down with a big book.

This book is good for those who are new/beginners to Finance. I use this book as an introduction to Finance and am still using it in school. It's definitely helpful especially if you have a professor who's familiar with the authors. Also, it's an advantage to get the answer key to the practice questions (which my school prof has provided us)
