Synopsis:

The market leader, Brigham/Houston, continues to grow in reputation as the most effective approach for learning in the first undergraduate corporate finance course. The Concise version of the extremely successful Fundamentals of Financial Management text offers a briefer alternative containing the same level of rigor concerning the topics covered. It is also updated to reflect the latest in theory, research, real-world examples, and use of technology. The seamless, integrated ancillary package - done by the authors - is a hallmark of this package that makes course preparation easier for instructors and the subject more accessible for learners.
