Today, that process has morphed into one that seems to demand extensive time consuming changes for the sake of making authors conduct extensive time consuming changes.

Shyam Sunder and I teach Applied Financial Analysis. The course has its own web site from which the public can download and discuss the company and industry valuation reports produced by our students.
I have written an Introductory Finance Reader to accompany the Brealey and Myers textbook
Principles of
Corporate Finance. McGraw Hill publishes it for use at any university (ISBN 0072453796). Faculty can also obtain overheads to accompany the notes. You can download a sample copy containing "lectures" 1 through 6 of the
reader and the
overheads.
These are Adobe Acrobat PDF files. You MUST have version 4.0 or higher to read them! If you do not already have the Adobe Acrobat reader (version 4 or higher), do not panic! Or cry!
You can download a copy from Adobe which will allow you to read any this and any other PDF file on the web.
