It is also a book for practical men, whose first duty is to produce a decision, if possible by yesterday, but at least by tomorrow. The book offers a brief introduction to the theory of corporate finance, derived not from the theoretical abstractions of the academic economist, but rather from the practical objectives of an industry run by professional management.
