The Stock Options Book

by Alisa J. Baker

In recent years, more and more companies have begun to use stock options to attract, retain, and reward employees at all levels of the organization. As the use of stock options has increased, so has the degree of legal, accounting, and regulatory complexity associated with employee option plans. This all-new fifth edition of The Stock Options Book by equity compensation expert Alisa J. Baker presents a straightforward, comprehensive overview of both the big-picture issues and the technical details related to designing and implementing stock option plans. In addition to examining the rules, the book looks at "hot" issues and provides illustrative exhibits, a glossary, a bibliography, and primary source materials, plus a seminal article by Corey Rosen on stock plan design.
