Summary

...an indispensable strategic guide for corporate lawyers and insiders who must manage and defend takeover attempts. The book is much more than a thorough explanation of the law by experienced takeover lawyers. It is also a readable book, a must-read for anyone who wants to really understand the takeover process and its alien vocabulary. Ferrara, Brown and Hall cover the complete array of federal and state, statutory and administrative laws governing takeovers. They also reveal the richness of the case law created by recent contests for control. They carefully detail how the courts are resolving the gut issues faced by shareholders buffeted by the claims of bidders, targets, white knights, and others - all intent on capturing the shareholders' equity. And they offer an up-close view of some of the financial and legal maneuvers that decided the outcomes of recent epic struggles in America's boardrooms and courtrooms.
