The Economist
`I expect it to be essential reading for any economics or finance
Ph.D. student interested in corporate finance ... this volume
should contribute to the development of the contracts approach to
corporate finance ... an excellent exposition of the incomplete
contracts approach to the theory of the firm ... it is a fine
survey of the author's contributions to the theory of firm
boundaries and financial structure. As such, I commend it
highly.'
Review of Financial Studies
`...very stimulating book ... offers an excellent introduction to
teh theory of incomplete contracts. Furthermore, it shows that a
few fundamental ideas may be sufficient to explain a diversity of
real world phenomena. It can be recommended to all those who are
interested in the study of firms, markets, and other economic
institutions.'
