<p> This multi-author volume is a useful and thought- provoking contribution to the analysis and understanding of the firm. <p>Michael Dietrich, University of Sheffield<p> The editors and contributors to this book present a compelling body of evidence for moving toward a more holistic approach to the theory of the firm as a real entity in contrast to the contractual or agency based view common today. They propose that a holistic view is more likely to accommodate the dynamic reality of how firms behave in today's economy. <p>Gregory A. Jonas, Case Western Reserve University<br><br><p> The book can be recommended strongly to researchers and post-graduate students interested in the theory of the firm. It should also appeal to accountants interested in the role of accounting systems within the theory of the firm and similarly to lawyers concerned about the part that contracts play in this area. <p>Michael Bromwich, LSE<br>The Accounting Review, Vol. 83, No. 6, 2008
