Survey Research in Corporate Finance

H. Kent Baker Β· 2011
72/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

The first book to tackle survey methodology specifically within corporate finance, published by Oxford University Press in the FMA's peer-reviewed series, written by one of the field's most prolific scholars β€” that combination of credentials signals genuine gap-filling work rather than padding. It's a narrow specialist reference that will mean nothing to general readers, but for graduate students and finance researchers it's a legitimate tool.
