Very information and detailed book on Mergers and Acquisitions。 If you have any interest in the topic this is a book to read。 The offer knows the subject very well。 He provided very detailed actions when conducting an acquisition of a business。

Not much interesting information， quite a basic overview of M&A

Reads easily， written intuitively to skip around and find topics quickly。 Not meant to be deeply comprehensive on every topic （that'd be unreadable for one book！） but leads you in the right direction。 Reads easily， written intuitively to skip around and find topics quickly。 Not meant to be deeply comprehensive on every topic （that'd be unreadable for one book！） but leads you in the right direction。 。。。more

3。5 stars。 A really good overview of M&A。 Seemed like the right amount of detail。 A good resource to refer to as needed。

I'm going to give this book five stars， but I don't think this book is for everyone。 Seriously Goodreads friends， this isn't the kind of book you should go out and buy， like "Shoe Dog。" This book gives a broad overview to the steps of M&A and gives the reader an understanding of the vocabulary。 If I were a first or second-year associate attorney and had to go into the M&A department， I would definitely buy this book。 And read it in a coffee shop。 While drinking a lot of coffee。 It's a bit of a s I'm going to give this book five stars， but I don't think this book is for everyone。 Seriously Goodreads friends， this isn't the kind of book you should go out and buy， like "Shoe Dog。" This book gives a broad overview to the steps of M&A and gives the reader an understanding of the vocabulary。 If I were a first or second-year associate attorney and had to go into the M&A department， I would definitely buy this book。 And read it in a coffee shop。 While drinking a lot of coffee。 It's a bit of a slog。The reason I am rating it so high is because there just isn't much out there on this topic。 So I appreciate this book's existence。 It fills a niche。 。。。more

A well-done book which is everything it claims to be -- all the stuff about M&A from the start （why do it） to the end （challenges in integrating the companies; alternatives to M&A）。 Some of it is tedious， but so is the subject matter， really。
