Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - rough going
The author is obviously an expert in this field, but his book is very difficult to wade through, even for someone well-versed in finance. I had the same issue with the "Body of Knowledge" books. If all you do for a living is valuation, you might appreciate these tombs, but for practical use, one I like more is "Unlocking the Value of Your Business".



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - New information for the new economy
A great addition to your reference library. The Handbook is an incredibly useful tool for valuation of the new companies and industries that have emerged in recent years. I highly recommend it.
