Other financial management books are much better!!! November 2, 2008 Amit Caspi (Chicago, IL) This book is very confusing. No use of examles and no free book website support. You can't find a solution manual if you need one. The professors in our school don't like it also...however they required us to buy it but they give us handouts and homework from other text material..... Avoid it if you can chose your own book :(
Stop this nonsense! October 1, 2007 Marshal Berthier (Colorado USA) This book is a P.O.S. The explanations are poor and confusing, results of calculations are used with no reference to the formulas (which are discussed many chapters later), I frequently find myself referring to other works for clarity, even on subjects I know well. Profs use this piece of trash because they are too lazy to make the migration to any of the many other better corporate finance books that are now available. Brigham checked out of the authorship business many years ago. This is now simply mechanical production from the Thomson machine.

I bought the recent 9th edition of this book, and on the contrary to the previous reviews, i have found the book very helpful (probably the authors made some big changes in this edition). It gave relevant and very good examples with mini real-life cases at the end of every chapter. One of the big advantages in this book is that it gives you answer keys at the end of the book so you can check your answers to end-of-chapter problems. Keep in mind that this is an advanced course textbook so it will assume you have previous "solid" knowledge of concepts like time value of money etc.

Not worth the paper it was printed on and completely overpriced. If you are an MBA candidate you should save $145 to spend on other study guides.
