"Today, corporate governance is a topic at the center of public
policy debate in most industrialized countries. The range of
concerns; the variety of approaches; and their tendency to converge
in some areas or diverge in others (not always in the right
directions) are emphatically demonstrated by these essays. There is
material here of enormous interest for scholars of comparative law
and economic regulation. And significantly, the presentation of
essays from legal, financial, and regulatory viewpoints
demonstrates the growing practical as well as theoretical utility
ofinterdisciplinary work in this area. Professors Ali and Gregoriou
are to be warmly congratulated for their skill and initiative in
assembling an important publication, as well as for their own
contributions to interdisciplinary scholarship."
--R. P. Austin, BA, LLM (Sydney), DPhil (Oxon), Supreme Court of
New South Wales
"This very international collection emphasizes the economic line
of descent, while including legal and socio-legal contributions. It
fills a very important gap in our empirical knowledge of corporate
governance. It is accessible and comprehensive and will greatly
assist readers from all relevant disciplines, who are trying to
discern the shape of corporate governance as a mature field."
--Dimity Kingsford Smith, Professor of Law, University of New
South Wales
