Building on the success of the last three editions, this textbook provides both undergraduate and postgraduate students with an accessible and comprehensive introduction to corporate governance. As a renowned expert in the field, Mallin draws upon theory and practice to address the latest global developments and uses topical examples to help students place key theories in context. 

Adopting an international approach, this fourth edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect the changes in codes (e.g. UK CG code and Stewardship code) and a greater emphasis has been given to the perspective of stakeholders as well as increased coverage of the Middle East, and new analysis of topics such as bonuses and the high pay commission.

The book is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre which includes: 

For students: Fill in the blank questions, updates, web links, crosswords of key terms and an author's blog

For lecturers: PowerPoint presentations 

Readership: Second and third year undergraduates and postgraduate business, economics, and accounting and finance students. As this book is an introduction to the topic which is not intended to be critical it is suitable for undergraduates and masters courses where a basic introduction to the subject is required.
