  • Leading book in the field
Format: Paperback
I was pleased to see a new edition of this classic book. It retains the concise but lively writing of the first edition but brings the material entirely up to date, with current data and recent examples that are well integrated into the text (not simply add-ons). There is a good mix of deal descriptions and research findings -- all highly accessible but precisely written. The book is ideal for students and academics seeking to deepen their understanding of private funds (especially PE and VC), the firms that sponsor them, and entrepreneurship. While probably pitched toward business schools, the book is also well suited for PE/ VC/ private funds courses in law schools. ... show more

  • Solid Introduction for Private Equity Concepts
Format: Hardcover
Overall, this is a well written and informative introduction to the world of private equity. Granted this was a mandatory textbook for a course in private equity, I found it extremely helpful and still refer back to it at times a year later. The text does a sufficient job at introducing and explaining concepts from The Private Equity Cycle between General Partners and Limited Partners to the structuring of deals and achieving liquidity in a PE setting. While my very accomplished professor, currently a founder and managing partner at his own PE firm, did mention several times throughout the semester that some of the book's explanations were not accurate depictions of the "real-world", he still felt a majority of the concepts were for the most part accurate. It is mostly a conceptual textbook without much in-depth "math" work. If you are looking for a solid introduction to private equity or this is a required textbook for a class, I would recommend going ahead and buying (instead of renting) the book if you are genuinely interested. However, if you are searching for a more in-depth look into more advanced PE modeling or LBO tactics, I would look elsewhere. ... show more
