A very well laid out text, with everything, including futher references, which you will need. A bit longer than necessary, though. It could have been condensed in many parts, where it stated the obvious.
Had the pleasure to be a student of the author of the book.The book itself is very well structured, clear and interesting. Overall, it was a great start in my academic reading for Business and Management.
