3.0 out of 5 stars BPO 2nd edition review, September 2, 2011
This review is from: Business Process Outsourcing: Process, Strategies, and Contracts (Wiley Desktop Editions) (Hardcover)
The book is quite interesting in matter of setting an initial framework for BPO contracts, provisions and so forth. However I do think that it lacks a little in depth in matters of theoretical BPO foundation and/or importance. Every piece of information within the book is not quite up to date, which means it has content from 2005 and backwards, no recent developments ins regard to the topic exist.
