Corporate Finance by Stephen A Ross
Presenting corporate finance as the working of a small number of integrated and powerful intuitions, this work develops the concepts of modern finance: arbitrage, net present value, efficient markets, agency theory, options, and trade-off between risk and return, and uses them to explain corporate finance with a balance of theory and application.

One of the most widely published authors in finance and economics, Professor Ross is recognized for his work in developing the Arbitrage Pricing Theory and his substantial contributions to the discipline through his research in signaling, agency theory, option pricing, and the theory of the term structure of interest rates, among other topics.
