Reviews

Smith reviews the buyout of RJR-Nabisco, the hostile raids on Polaroid and Time-Warner, and the bust-up of the Beatrice conglomerate as he contends that merger waves and bull markets tend to go together. PW called this "a challenging book that punctures many widely held assumptions about the mergers and acquisitions process."
