Acknowledgments
 
 
 
 
A book like this can result only from the contributions of many talented people. We would like to thank the chapter authors who make up this book for their clear and informative explanations of the powerful concepts and tools of finance and accounting. These people dedicate their lives to educating others in the complexities of their disciplines. In this ever-changing world of technology, strategy, economic cycles, geopolitical events, and the Internet, while most of the underlying concepts remain fixed, the applications are ever changing, requiring the authors to constantly rededicate themselves to their professions. We thank our editor, Michael Grossman, for his reviewing of the materials from the perspective of an MBA student.
We dedicate this book to our wives, Ruthie Grossman and Trudy Livingstone, and to our children and grandchildren. They provide the daily inspiration to diligently perform our work and to have undertaken this project.
