This book contains a few generalized ideas, though is more a wide description of what MBA is, than an MBA handbook. Huge plus is that it has a well structured reading recommendations, if specific topics woke your interest up.

As an MBA graduate, this book explains "what MBA" is rather than refreshes information or introduces a new guy to the topic
