However, to optimize our decision-making, we need more than 'rules of thumb'. We need to understand our choices, and the reasons market players behave the way they do.

The applied focus of this book provides answers to the questions most managers might have, in an entertaining style. It includes simple numerical examples and graphs to help understanding of the concepts. The relationship between risk, return and the cost of capital is contextualized by relating it to the needs of investors and borrowers, the historical evidence, and theories of choice and behavior.
