"I am pleased to see this publication. Having known two of the authors for many years, and employed their firm on many complex projects in the past, I am confident in their abilities. The intricacies of the topics mandate completeness of coverage in a succinct (impossible to be simple) manner if the reader is to grasp the true value. They’ve done that here."
–James A. McNulty, CFO, BioDelivery Sciences International, Inc.

"FASB guidance is not very explicit in telling accountants how to make fair value measurements leaving interpretation up to preparers, auditors, and valuation specialists.

–Michael A. Crain, Former chairman, AICPA Business Valuation Committee
