What's New

Additional and updated coverage of corporate governance, ethics, and recent scandals. This information will be spread throughout the book, including chapters 1, 3 (regarding IPO scandals and regulation changes), 4 (mutual fund scandals), 13 (disclosure within financial statements), and 16 (futures markets).
Greater coverage of behavioral finance is included in Chapters 8 (Efficient Markets and the Behavioral Critique) and 19 (Behavioral Finance and Technical Analysis). This reflects the recent research in this increasingly popular new area in finance.
Part 6 has been completely re-organized based on customer feedback. Chapter 18, International Investing, is now presented earlier in the text.
Every chapter has been reviewed and revised to give instructors and students the most modern, up-to-date textbook available. All tables and figures have been updated where necessary, and examples have been updated to reflect current issues and happenings in the dynamic world of investments.
In response to many reviewers, the tables and charts presented in the text will be available in PowerPoint.
