Deal Teams: The Roles and Motivations of Management Team Members, Investment Bankers, Venture Capitalists and Lawyers in Negotiations, Mergers, Acquisitions and Equity Investments

Summary: INVALUABLE RESOURCE
Review: "Deal Teams" is a superb book. It contains invaluable information for seasoned M&A professionals and a comprehensive, reader-friendly overview of the business and legal context of M&A transactions. This book will be a best friend to a young lawyer or business person just starting out, or to anyone interested in the dynamics of business transactions. I sat down and read the entire book in one sitting (and this from someone not typically attracted to business-related books). "Deal Teams" stands apart from other books about law and business in that it draws its reader in, both instructing and allowing the reader to savor Mr. Frankel's use of language. I look forward to Mr. Frankel's future publications, which, if they are half as good as this book, will make him a household name in the business and legal worlds.

Summary: Excellent tool for all!
Review: In this book Frankel presents a clear, understandable look at deal teams and the role of each player. He uses his experience to provide insightful anecdotes and an excellent introduction to strategic transactions and those who make them. A must read for anyone interested in how businesses are bought and sold, anyone seeking to buy or sell a company or a seasoned veteran who wants to brush up on the role of each player. I enjoyed this book and learned a tremendous amount!
