The book was simplistic in the concepts and examples, little boring, but good book for high school business major wanna-bees
Rating: - Great Book for Beginning Managers!
I am in a MBA program with little management background. I find this book to be excellent. It has tons of graphs with color and lots of case studies. It comes with an access code for you to get onto the website to take tests. If you are new to business I recommend this book.
