Emery, Finnery, Stowe is the only corporate finance text to bridge the gap between theory and practice with a unique pedogical framework, and the expertise of a researcher, practitioner, and teacher. Instructors and professors agree that bringing real word examples into the corp fin course is paramount, but doing this in a way that harnesses the theory is tough.

The third edition of EFS is the best corporate finance textbook/reference available. The text correctly does several things. First, it uses the Principles to tie the topics together. Second, the author's mix of academic and professional experience allows for a book that is both real world and theoretically correct. Third, the book's layout makes it user friendly.I especially like the integration of agency issues and (real) options throughout the book.Within the past year, I have taught from Brigham (et al), Ross (et al), Emery (et al) and re
