Product Description

Product Description

The second edition of this well-established text is student- focused with an international approach to corporate governance. Well written and easy to engage with, a sound theoretical base is built upon to encompass the latest developments in corporate governance. The increasingly topical areas of globalization and emerging markets are tackled and changes in corporate governance codes in the UK and internationally are accounted for. The new edition features an expanded section on International Governance, with sections on governance issues in Continental Europe, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia and India, South Africa, and Brazil. These are placed in context in the concluding chapter, which discusses Corporate Governance internationally and why international issues are important to the student. Suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate students studying a module in Corporate Governance, the book stimulates student interest by drawing from a range of empirical, practitioner and academic research. The text contains excellent pedagogical features including topical case studies, thought provoking questions and exercises, useful chapter summaries and introductions and helpful web links to an Online Resource Centre that features a wealth of resources and pedagogy. This is the only European textbook in the field of corporate governance and so it is the key text for all students of the subject. Online Resource Centre For Students: crosswords created from the key glossary terms, fill in the gaps questions, articles and links. For lecturers: PowerPoint slides.

3.0 out of 5 stars Solid but unimaginative, 5 May 2004
By Barton Keyes "barton keyes" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Corporate Governance (Paperback)
A straight "up-and-down" and reasonably comprehensive account of most of the current major issues in coprorate governance.In particular, I find it very hard to understand how any discussion of corporate governance can neglect to discuss the company secretary's role or fail to include a reference to "company secretary" in the index! A passably good first introduction (good on international comparisons) but lacks discussion of some of the arguments that are developing -- and the writing is often very clunky -- so it requires supplementing with other texts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good core text, 23 Dec 2007
By Ms. S. G. Brown "Sara" (China) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Christine has produced a very good book that I have recommended to my non-English students to use as the core book at Masters level. It provides a fair assessment of the subject for international students who might not have studied Company Law. It means that students have a good base and can then read around the topics with academic articles.
