Well written text. Straight and to the point with little baggage.

The book is a decent introduction to management...but I was required to buy it for a graduate level course. It was not a graduate level book.

I read this book as a requirement for a college course during a two-week intersession. Wow! Loaded with tons of information! This is a book I'll keep on my bookshelf, and I will be referring to it often. I am happy to report that I am finished reading it. My course is complete. And, I am getting on a plane to the Mexican Riviera to take a nice holiday after all my hard work!! =o)
