A Not-So-Tender Offer: An Insider's Look at Mergers and Their Consequences

By Isadore Barmash and Barmash

Book Overview

Even with the aftermath of the '80s still hanging over Wall Street, the takeover craze is picking up new momentum in the '90s, regardless of the consequences. This book takes debate with this merger mania, and with insider knowledge and accounts takes a look at what goes on behind the headlines. It chronicles the mergers of the past decade and assesses the impact they have had on corporate performance, the economy and the millions of employees and shareholders affected by the upheavals. Providing an account of the never-ending merger circus, the author imparts a message of caution and calls for, above all else, the return of common sense to the merger and acquisition arena.
