From the Back Cover:

Nobel Prize winning author Myron S. Scholes and Mark A. Wolfson are joined in this second edition by three new co-authors: Merle Erickson, Edward L. Maydew, and Terry Shevlin. All five authors have actively taught the tax and business strategy material, and the text draws generously from their classroom and business experiences.

Appropriate for people interested in investment banking, corporate finance, strategy consulting, money management, or venture capital, Taxes and Business Strategy, Second Edition provides topical coverage including mergers and acquisitions, international expansion, investment strategies, tax arbitrage, employee stock options, and estate planning.

The revision features a stronger MBA perspective. This is achieved by integrating the tax law with fundamentals of corporate finance and microeconomics.
