I've ordered this book 3 times. Each time the book, which includes a CD-ROM in the back for the ease of duplicating the many forms inside, came with a defective disk. AMACOM rebuffed, rather rudely in fact, my request for a replacement disk. They were also contacted by ... AMACOM refused their request to fix their defective CDs as well. At this point, I'm returning the book.

This is unfortunate because the book is well written, but I have no plans to purchase anything published by AMACOM again.

Good book but came with a defective forms CD.I was told by the American Management Association that I need to run the CD on win 95 to open the files? The book was published in 2002!

I purchased this book because I am new to the Leasing Industry. In effort to be more knowledgeable, I purchased this book. So far, I'm in the early reading and can tell this is a GREAT ASSET! I read it every day with much anticipation.

Some earlier comments spoke negatively about the CD with Forms and worksheets. My book did not have the CD, but a caption in the front of the book tells me to visit this website for download of all the forms. Actually, it went very smooth and I am delighted with all the information. One thing about the download, you will need to re-adjust the formatting to get the form to print clearly. These documents are stored in RTF (Rich Text Format) and we use MSWord 07. Not a problem, I guess I expected to download and print with no adjustments of any kind. Thats not what happened. If you take the time to change your paper style, adjust your margins, and fill in your applicable data, the forms are WONDERFUL.

Overall, I wish I had this guide years ago! I wouldn't be so far behind the learning curve today.
Great Book! I highly encourage it.

I was a little skeptical about ordering the book given the other review's comments of defective cds. My book came with 2 cds and the one with the files in RTF format worked just fine with MS Word.
The contents of the book are layed out in an easy to follow structure. It is easy to transition from the early overview chapters onwards to specific, detailed topics covered later in the book.
