This book provides a framework for thinking about economic instiutions such as firms. The basic idea is that institutions arise in situations where people write incomplete contracts and where the allocation of power or control is therefore important. Power and control are not standard concepts in economic theory. The book begins by pointing out that traditional approaches cannot explain on the one hand why all transactions do not take place in one huge firm and on the other hand why firms matter at all. An incomplete contracting or property rights approach is then developed. It is argued that this approach can throw light on the boundaries of firms and on the meaning of asset ownership. In the remainder of the book, incomplete contacting ideas are applied to understand firms' financial decisions, in particular, the nature of debt and equity (why equity has votes and creditors have foreclosure rights); the capital structure decisions of public companies; optimal bankruptcy procedure; and the allocation of voting rights across a company's shares. The book is written in a fairly non-technical style and includes many examples.It is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, academic and business economists, and lawyers as well as those with an interest in corporate finance, privatization and regulation, and transitional issues in Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and China. Little background knowledge is required, since the concepts are developed as the book progresses and the existing literature is fully reviewed.

If your reality folds in on itself, who do you trust? One breath. In. Out. The nights when Sariah doesn't dream are a relief. For as long as she can remember, her dreams have felt as real as her waking hours, and not a single doctor in New Harper has been able to tell her why. Though if she's honest with herself, she would jump at the chance to disappear into a dream and evade the town's abusive Commissioner. Any life would be better than the one she's living. When a stranger acts unusually familiar and asks for Sariah's help to save his missing sister, Sariah is forced to question if everything she knows is a lie. For the first time in her life, Sariah has a chance to escape. But is there a cost too high?
