Top-notch eBook content to use in the classroom The Need for Quality, Diverse Content for Academic, Government, and Corporate Researchers Investment Banks, Hedge Funds, and Private Equity, 2nd Edition David StowellISBN: 978-0-12-415820-7Pub Date: August 2012 "Books on investment banking are few and far between and mostly out of date. Usually they are very academic or written by lawyers rather than by someone who understands the business. This one, written by a former practitioner, gives students of investment banking just the insights they need into the nexus of investment banking, private equity and hedge funds." --Brian Scott-Quinn, Chair in Investment Banking, ICMA Centre, Henley Business School, University of Reading Mergers, Acquisitions, and Other Restructuring Activities, 6th EditionDonald M. DePamphilisISBN: 978-0-12-385485-8Pub Date: August 2011 "After teaching M&A for ten years, I was relieved when last semester I finally switched to DePamphilis' text. His single book replaced numerous other sources that I had to use before. DePamphilis' academic rigor is combined with his deep personal experience as a deal maker, and thus the textbook is highly valuable to both newcomers and those being involved in transactions for many years.“ -- Viktoria Dalko, Global Professor of Finance, Harvard University Extension School Project Finance in Theory and Practice, 2nd Edition Designing, Structuring, and Financing Private and Public Projects Stefano GattiISBN: 978-0-12-391946-5 Pub Date: September 2012 This book presents comprehensive coverage of project finance in Europe and North America.  The author provides a complete description of the ways a project finance deal can be organized-from industrial, legal, and financial standpoints-and the alternatives available for funding it. After reviewing recent advances in project finance theory, he provides illustrations and case studies.
