SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Will the early years of the new century continue to witness the huge growth in merger and acquisition activity which marked the end of the last? The chances are that they will - witness the value of deals carried out by the top five investment banks in the first quarter of 2001 alone ($456.2 billion). The quest for the golden fleece is alive and well. Will the majority of M & As continue to fail to achieve their potential value? Reaping the Benefits of Mergers and Acquisitions: In search of the golden fleece is about breaking out of the cycle of grand strategy, great prospects, poor implementation, and lost opportunities. The authors believe that it is possible for M & As to realize their value - and more."--Jacket.
