Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
This compendium of investment advice by no fewer than 125 British and American newsletter writers, institutional investors, and economists reveals few secrets, though there are some high spots in this loosely organized, eclectic mix. The essays often serve as a sampling of the writer's philosophy or methodology. For example, closed-end fund expert Thomas Herzfeld's entry begs for the more complete explanation found in his book, Herzfeld's Guide to Closed-End Funds (McGraw, 1993). Mark Hulbert's intelligent commentary on how best to use investment newsletters is all too brief. And, Sir John Templeton's advice to buy undervalued companies for the long term is short on specifics. Given the range of investment topics covered, libraries adding this book will serve patrons best by providing the most complete cataloging possible.?Joseph Barth, U.S. Military Acad.

From Library Journal
Managing in today's highly complex, international environment is a daunting challenge for those entering this still-evolving "profession." Editor Crainer, a management writer and commentator, has assembled cutting-edge writings from many of today's management experts in this weighty tome. This superb reference is divided into sections on the foundations, tools and techniques, international aspects, and new elements in management. The material from many well-known consultants, speakers, and writers, e.g., Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Michael Porter, and W. Edwards Deming, is all new, and the thumbnail sketches of many of these key management thinkers add value. Since 1954, and again today, Peter Drucker (Managing in a Time of Great Change, LJ 10/15/95) has provided us with management tools to last for ages. With this treasure chest of present-day writings, Crainer adds to this essential group of tools. Highly recommended for academic libraries supporting a business curriculum.
