Investment Economics (1969) examines the process of investment decision-making in firms, looking at the theory of investment and the details of investment theory in business practice. The study of investment theories, prompted by the government and by nationalised industries, led many businesses to utilise more sophisticated techniques to analyse the impact of investment on their day-to-day running and their profits. This book takes an overview of the theories, techniques and their impacts.
