I am returning this book. It has not been updated in many many years. I was expecting a contemporary book on Purchasing.

A book with the good tips.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handbook for Buying and Purchasing Management (Hardcover)
As a beginner in the field of Purchasing,I found this book veryusefull and full with "gemstones" tips. The author has alot of experience to share with us,gives us an ideas what to do,how and why. My only comment is on the lack of cost analysis examples. |
