Reviews

[The Oxford Handbook of Corporate Governance] is an authoritative volume written by a combination of influential authors and rising stars. The scope is remarkable, with 32 chapters providing comprehensive coverage of corporate governance, from its historical origins to cutting-edge research areas... Coverage is balanced, with no one theoretical perspective dominating... The topical structure is equally suited to the governance novice and the seasoned scholar alike. A must for any scholar of corporate governance... Highly recommended. --CHOICE
