Such a broad and inclusive approach to mergers and acquisitions is not easily replicated in academic journals, with much narrower mandates and metrics. The chapters published in this volume provide cutting edge ideas by leading scholars, and help to inform mergers and acquisitions research around the world.Volume 18 of this annual series explores a range of issues that include: why the success rate of M&As is still limited; how Boards influence M&A activity; what the role of M&A advisors is; the role of diversity in the context of M&As; stakeholder relationships in the context of M&As; why research has not focussed on family businesses in the M&A field as much as it should; making M&As less risky as a strategic investment; merging cities; pre-merger and acquisition strategies and finally, how 'value' has been used or not used in M&As. 410 0$aAdvances in mergers and acquisitions ;$vv. 18.$x1479-361X 606 $aConsolidation and merger of corporations 606 $aOrganizational change$xManagement 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & management$2bicssc 615 0$aConsolidation and merger of corporations. 615 0$aOrganizational change$xManagement. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral. 615 7$aBusiness & management. 676 $a658.16 702 $aCooper$b Cary L. 702 $aFinkelstein$b Sydney 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972880203321 996 $aAdvances in mergers and acquisitions$91214370 997 $aUNINA
