l  Investment Valuation(3rd edition) :   is the book that is most suited for a classroom textbook . It follows the standard script of valuation, looking at different  valuation models with twists. It also follows textbook format (with problems at the end of each chapter).

l  Damodaranon Valuation  (2nd   edition): provides a quicker review   of the basic valuation but the second half of the book is built around dealing with what I call the loose ends of valuation- control, synergy, intangible assets etc. It has no problem sets and is really meant for practitioners who deal with the loose ends on a constant basis.  

l  TheDark Side of Valuation (2nd edition) : covers companies that are difficult to value–young companies, money losing companies, financialservice companies, emerging market companies.

l  The Little Book of Valuation: If you truly,truly hate to read and are budget constrained, think of this as the Cliff notes version of my longer books.
