After a brief, insightful history of the company and the growth of its world-famous products-Gillette razors and blades; Braun coffee machines and electric razors; Oral-B toothbrushes; Paper Mate, Waterman, and Parker pens; and cosmetics-the author tells the inside story of Ronald Perelman's three attempts and the Coniston Partners' one attempt to take over Gillette. Ricardo-Campbell, who chaired Gillette's Finance Committee during this period, provides a fascinating look at the ensuing proxy battles and other intricate financial maneuvers. Combining academic theory and first-hand experience in its discussion of topics such as greenmail and poison pills, this work also features such world-renowned corporate figures as Warren Buffett, Joe Flom, and Eric Gleacher.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729172005152,"sku":"NEW0275958302","price":167.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61VnSowXlmL.jpg?v=1779427766","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/resisting-hostile-takeovers-the-case-of-gillette-0275958302","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
