NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT
VENTURE CAPITAL AND THE FINANCE OF INNOVATION
By Andrew Metrick (Wharton)
Wiley 2006
This book is intended for finance classes on venture
capital at the MBA or advanced undergraduate level. The
text is divided into four parts, with six chapters each.
Each of these four parts has a major finance theme: the
theme of Part I is the relationship between risk and
return; the theme of Part II is the valuation of high-
growth companies; the theme of Part III is the analysis of
capital structure; the theme of Part IV is the relationship
between strategy and finance.
Overall, Parts I and II are heavy on data and definitions
and are intended to provide students with the vocabulary of
VC and knowledge of the key industry facts. Although these
two parts contain some new definitions and approaches, most
of the material should seem familiar to a VC practitioner.
In contrast, Parts III and IV are more theory based and
provide a new perspective on the evaluation of VC and other
high-technology investments. Although these latter two
parts might seem experimental to a practicing VC, financial
economists will recognize the material as a straightforward
translation of well-known methods.
