Summary: Insight of the century. Redefining Wall Street's future.
Review: Damodaran is the greatest professors of all time. At Stern, over 300 students cram to listen to his teachings. This book offers an approach to evaluate what companies and businesses are truly worth and what one can do to turn them around. If you're looking for the book that will redefine Wall Street and boost your company to new heights, this book is definitely the material for you.

Summary: Awesome
Review: Its easily the best book on corporate finance (yeah! I have read brearley and myers, benninga, ...). Highly recommended. If you want to MASTER corporate finance. simply buy and read the book. The case studies and excel spreadsheets are very good. Another recommendation for a good financial analysis book is the book by eric helfert - financial analysis. Both books teach finance in common speak which goes a long way in understanding this topic for a new student.

Summary: Great potential. Next edition should be a blockbuster.
Review: The text gets 5 stars for the orientation, organization, and the on-line resources for the text. It describes exactly what you would want in an Applied Corporate Finance course. Unfortunately, I have to deduct 3 stars because the text contains too many typos and smple calculations which I specifically want my students not to make. This has been frustrating for my students, as well as myself. However, I am confident that when this problem is cleaned up, the book will be among the best Applied Corporate Finance text in the market. I strongly recommend a new, corrected edition.

Summary: Like Tina Turner once said, "Simply the Best"
Review: This book is just plain great from top to bottom. Damodaran makes it easy to get both the "bird's eye view" as well as the nitty gritty detail you want in a corporate finance text. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for something beyond an elementary understanding of finance.

Summary: An indispensable guide
Review: This book is one of my best investments I have ever made. It is perfectly suited for 1st year MBA students with no prior exposure to finance. The first principles chart appearing at the beginning of each chapter always drags the students to the basics of why we are doing things. Prof Damodaran seems to be an excellent teacher and makes corporate finance a fun subject. The support web site has wealth of information and most importantly solutions to problems(I have never understood why many books hardly bother to give answers to problems)are given. Don't do a corporate finance course without this book.

Summary: Great potential. Next edition should be a blockbuster.
Review: This is not just the best book on corporate finance, but ranks as one of the best technical books I ever read. Extremely well organized with examples not just close to real life but REAL LIFE itself. The knowledge about brazilian economy is astonishingly accurate. Forgot to mention the web site that helps the reader. Very useful and updated. A perfect combination. I Recommend without restrictions.
