An Economist by trade, finance was never something I actually studied that much, ironically enough. When getting my MBA, however, this book was able to translate complex finance topics into manageable day-to-day English. Rather than simply just stating theory and facts, the text went into why these concepts were importatnt. It provided context, which was great for me because I could start connecting these concepts to my past history as well as my personal financal outlook. Great text! Worth the money. Also DEFINITELY USE the online tools. They are great practice!

My B-school uses this book in our Financial Management course. I really don't have any bad things to say about it. These guys did a great job writing it. It's written in a way that really allows you to understand the material even without having had any prior experience with some of the subject matter. There are also a lot of great examples. It's very thorough. Will be a good addition to your bookshelf (and brain).

Best Corporate Finance Book Ever, May 3 2007

Berk and DeMarzo could achieve something that seemed impossible: an innovative Corporate Finance textbook, improving what is found in the classics, such as Brealey&Myers, Ross, Gitman etc.
Very, very good!
