摘要

This title addresses the important, but very often overlooked, subject of emotions in mergers and acquisitions (M&As). Verena Kusstatscher and Cary Cooper offer a conceptual as well as practical approach to the theme by dividing their book into three major parts. The first one reads as a theoretical overview and summary of works on emotions and the particular understanding of emotions in M&As. It is a state of the art presentation and core contribution to research on the theme. The first part concludes with a conceptual framework formulated by the authors that will guide their subsequent empirical case studies.
