4.0 out of 5 stars Concise guide to the wide world of business, December 11, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a concise overview of the wide world of business. The best audience for this book would be someone mid college who has taken the foundation classes for business and may be trying to decide up on a focus. However, later career people who are in a different field may be attracted to `business' in general will find the comprehensive list of careers useful to condense out their options
