Adopting an innovative, open-learning approach to introduce the main principles of financial management in an accessible, non-technical way, this fully updated 4th edition provides a unique focus on the practical application of financial management and its role in decision making. Fully supported by a comprehensive range of student and lecturer learning resources, Financial Management for Decision Makers is ideal for undergraduates from a non-finance/accounting discipline taking an introductory module in financial management, and postgraduate/experienced students on courses such as the ACCA Diploma in Financial Management, Diploma in Management, and on MBA programmes. The text is also suitable for finance and accounting students as a foundation for further study.
Although a textbook, I would still recommend this one for anyone interested in starting their own business. Knowledge is an asset at the end, and you'd better get equipped with plenty of financial knowledge before you start throwing your money away in going-nowhere investments.
