Excellent mix of theory and practice
one of the better texts in an increasingly crowded field
This is an essential component of our course reading into CSR.
Concise textbook, well structured, valuable supporting case studies, international perspective.
Offers a much more practical discussion that many competitor texts. Excellent use of case studies to back up arguments raised.
The text gave a good overview of corporate governance and the issues leaders face in dealing with boards.
THe book is interesting but for this course for masterstudents at a law faculty which have prior knowledge of company law, it was seen as not containing a sufficient amount of explanations from a legal perspective. It is a very interesting book however, insufficient legal background for this course.
This new book on corporate governance enhances traditional books, applying a global and decision oriented perspective.
Good book on Corporate Governance. A recommended addition to Strategic Management textbook, in particular if students want to know more about Corporate Governance within the subject of Strategic Management.
Excellent source! It makes CG really interesting for students.
