Book Description
"Brigham/Houston: A Classic, redefined...because a classic never goes out of style." The market leader, Brigham/Houston, continues to grow in reputation and amount of users as the most effective approach for teaching the first undergraduate corporate finance course. This Concise version of the extremely successful, Brigham/Houston-Fundamentals of Financial Management, contains the same level of topical rigor while also reflecting the latest in theory, research, real-world examples, and use of technology as Fundamentals. The seamless, integrated ancillary package, still painstakingly prepared by the authors, is a hallmark of the Brigham/Houston package which reduces course preparation time for instructors and makes the subject more accessible for learners. New for this edition is the addition of iLrn Finance, an online student assessment and tutorial resource to help improve student performance. Additionally, access to Thomson ONE - Business School Edition, an online financial database that students can use to complete projects or select end of chapter exercises, is included with each new text.

Fundamentals of Financial Management.......2007-10-18
Everything came as promised, unfortunately I found a better deal around here, by about 50 dollars so I just had to bite the bullet and send it back.
Excellent textbook for gaining an understanding of Finance.......2007-03-10
This text book is an excellent resource for understanding Financial Management. It was a required text in my MBA program and the book is easy to go through on your own. There are exercises, or self tests, at the end of each section in the chapters, as well as many types of problems and self test questions at the end of the chapters.
We had a mediocre teacher in my MBA program, so going through the text was imperative. The authors do a great job breaking down concepts and some of the examples at end of chapter sections have the answers.
I comes with a supplemental booklet to further help undertand the "Time Value of Money" which, according to the authors, is a difficult concept.
One big plus for this text is that it shows you how to figure out the problems using formulas, using financial caluclators, and using an Excel spreadsheet.
I highly recommend doing the examples and problems in the book, and ordering the study guide. The study guide has additional examples and problems to work through and is the perfect supplement.
This is one text I am going to keep!
Great Service.......2006-12-21

Customer Reviews:
Excellent textbook with clear explanations.......2006-12-09
This textbook is very well done. Difficult concepts are clearly explained and there are simple examples backing up explanations. Exercises are plenty and the accompanying CD is an excellent resources.
All major concepts of corporate finance are covered and links to real world examples are very helpful. The authors always keep the subject close to the real world by telling how corporate finance is practice by corporate. So none of what is in this book is ever abstract of too academic.
A very good book, a very useful resource. Highly recommended.
Fundamentals of Financial Management .......2006-05-31
The quality of the book was good and the price was even better. It arrived within 5 days of my purchase which was good because my class starts tomorrow.
Fundamentals of Financial Management: Concise.......2005-09-14
The quality of the book was very good. There was a large amount of highlighting but, the price was fair. The book was shipped with good packing materials and received in an expected time frame.
The Long Way Book.......2004-03-22
I was very disappointed in this book because I looked forward to my finance class in college. But this book was poorly put together - one short paragraph would talk about carry forward and back but nothing was elaborated on the subject - it would just go right into the equation. I heavily depended on the professor's lecture and not once referred to the book when studying for the exam. However, I did use the book to make sure I was using the correct terminology for the exam.
Book Description
This supplement lists the key learning objectives for each chapter, outlines the key sections, provides self-test questions, and provides a set of problems similar to those in the text and the Test Bank, but with fully worked out solutions.

Book Description
The first edition of Porter/Norton was the most successful new entry into the financial accounting market in twenty years. This third edition holds true to the original vision of teaching the subject from both the preparer and user perspective, but with a revision focused on greater accessibility to the variety of students taught. Two annual reports (Gateway and Ben JerryÆs) and an annual update program with price stability guarantee highlight the third edition package.
Customer Reviews:
Get the new edition, not the 9th edition.......2002-09-18
I am the co-author of this book. the 10th edition is now out. If you are a student, you'll want that. If you're trying to learn on your own, you'll find this 9th edition adequate and much cheaper. good luck. roman
Great for graduate study.......2002-08-22
Many people get this book wrong. This is a book for graduate students, not for undergraduates. It introduces the concepts of financial accounting in a condensed way, which does require more time and patient to understand it, like the way we study in MBA program. Since this book assumes its reader as future statement readers, it introduces finanical statements, including balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement,in the first few chapters to let student understand the linkage among them. It is usually very difficult to understand for those without background, though. Plus, given the fact that this book is required by most of top MBA programs, like Chicago, Columbia, and NYU, I'd like to say that accounting professors have told us the quality of this book. For those who have a hard time on this, I would also recommend its accompanied study guide and solution manuals (used one available on amazon website ISBN 0030269695& ASIN: 0030182697; make sure get the right edition!!). After all, this is a good book, but requires more practices. Good luck.
A Good Introductory Text.......2001-12-30
I'd never had any accounting courses before. This textbook was required for my financial accounting course in an MBA program. The book does a good job of logically explaining all the important topics. Unfortunately, it takes a Herculean effort to sit down and study the material due to the dry subject matter.
The authors did a good job of using examples from real firms, which, I think, makes it more interesting. I've decided to keep this book after the course for a reference.
Accounting for dummies (ahem, I mean Lawyers).......2001-10-16
I am a 2nd year law student in the top 10% of my class at a first tier law school (meaning, I'm capable of reading and comprehending dense material). I took an accounting class thinking it would be helpful knowledge in the practice of law. My professor - fantastic. This text book - awful. The only reason I was able to (hopefully) get a good grade (the exam was last week) was that the professor was so good at explaining the concepts he felt were important. The book was confusing and overly verbose (coming from a wordsmith & soon to be lawyer, that statement should be given much weight!!) There were many exercises, but truth be told it was the professor's explanations that allowed me to do the exercises, NOT the book's.
You're going to get confuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2001-06-15
Firstly,I really want to rate this book zero star or minus star.I've bought this book because I used it in my MBA course .This book made me hate Accounting too.I strongly agree with rewiewer " this book made me hate accounting" .After I've read this book for many times I found it very wordy I can summarise the concept in one line whereas the books try to explain too much (2-3 pages)and also irrelavant.Eventhough the authur uses a lot of explanations, but can not be understood.IT is very vital to you to keep your money for the movie, put in the bank ,or doing whatever except buying this book.Anyway this book has a lot of exercises( Not so extremely bad)

Excellent book.......2005-08-03
One of the best books in finance. It's very clear and couldn't be simpler. This book is an excellent choice for students who are beginning to learn finance. I highly recommend it. All the books of these authors are great.
Amazon review system mixing two books?.......2004-10-27
From what I can tell, the Amazon review system seems to be mixing at least three books:
1) Fundamental Financial Management, 8th Edition (Study Guide) Authors: Brigham and Houston.
ISBN:003024434X
2)Financial Accounting: An Introduction to Concepts, Methods and Authors: Stickney and Weil
ISBN:0030259622
3) Financial Accounting: The Impact on Decision Makers
Authors: Porter and Norton
ISBN:0030270995
Note that some of the reviews refer to Brigham as the author and some to Stickney and Weil.
This is a great book.......2003-06-16
I am currently enrolled in the CFA program (Level II candidate), and this book was used for my first corporate finance class. I must say that I was a bit turned off at first by the amount of colorful pictures and charts the Brigham book contained under the assumption that the more staid the book was, the less gimmicks it had and the better it was (like the Brealey-Myers book). However, I was repeatedly struck by how conscise Brighams' explanations and examples were. The book not only had exhaustive coverage, but it was very well-written. The vignettes at the beginning of each of the chapter really shows a good application of the chapter's lesson in the real world.
When ever I come across a question concerning finance, I almost always reach for the Brigham and Houston book first--it's that good.
Excellent Foundational Book.......2003-01-06
This book is taught in an excellent format for understanding the foundational and fundamental concepts of finance. The authors did an outstanding job with how this text is organized. It's also very simple in the explanation of concepts. Some finance books are written as if they were disssertations. This book brings the concepts down to the common man. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking to start graduate study in finance.
Where's my book?.......2002-09-14
It has been 29 days since I ordered my textbook, it has never arrived, and the seller will not respond to my e-mails...very poor service!
Book Description
Making E-Business Work was developed to help those faced with the challenge of testing Web-enabled applications plan accordingly, thereby avoiding many common pitfalls and mistakes. The book is easy to follow and takes into account those who have little or no prior testing experience. The content highlights key testing areas of concern and acts as an excellent guide to lead the reader through the process of e-business application testing.
Customer Reviews:
Disappointing for testing pros - OK for managers & PMs.......2001-02-08
This book does not contain any useful information for software test professionals. It is little more than a whitepaper that takes a ten-thousand foot view of web testing and why it should be done, with lightweight examples.
However, this book does highlight activities and milestones that are essential to deploying web-based solutuions. From this point of view it does have value for managers and PMs who are responsible for making a business case for web-based projects.
For professional testers I recommend either Testing Applications on the Web by Hung Quoc Nguyen or Client Server Testing on the Desktop and Web by Daniel J. Mosley.
For project sponsors and project managers this book would nicely augment Web Project Management: Delivering Successful Commercial Web Sites by Ashley Friedlein.

Book Description
In a penetrating anthropological study of the working poor in India, Jan Breman examines the lives of those who, pushed out of the agrarian labor market, depend on casual work. By considering two villages in south Gujarat, the author discusses the mobilization of casual labor, demonstrating that this is characteristic of an employment pattern that dominates the rural and urban economy of large parts of South Asia. Elaborating on the social profile of the work migrants, the author shows that little has been done to improve their quality of life, which is defined by caste and class relations.
Book Description
The state of Kerala in southern India is notable for the ways in which lower-class mobilization and state intervention have combined to create one of the most successful cases of social and redistributive development in the Third World. In contrast to predictions that labor militancy in developing countries threatens to overload fledgling democratic institutions and derail economic growth, The Labor of Development shows that the political and economic inclusion of industrial and agricultural workers in Kerala set the stage for a democratically negotiated capitalist transformation.
When compared to the other Indian states, Kerala's departure from the national pattern is tied to its history of social movements and highlights the significance of understanding sub-national patterns of democratic consolidation and state building. The case of Kerala provides important theoretical insights into the circumstances under which the expansion of political and social citizenship can become the basis for managing economic change. Using examples from agriculture, industry, and the informal sector, Patrick Heller examines the institutional and political dynamics through which the demands of organized labor and the imperatives of capitalist growth have evolved from a period of open conflict and stagnation to one of class compromise. He also demonstrates that the Kerala model has broad ramifications for understanding the relationship between substantive democracy and market economies in low-income countries.
