The quality and scope of the team work section in unique, useful, needed, and practical. I enjoyed reading it... this material fits perfectly.

The text has excellent depth and coverage of those issues I emphasis in my course.

I think the writing style is clear, consise and easy to understand... the examples and model documents are quite good and help illustrate the concepts. I also like the variety of examples.

This review is from: The Basics: Business Communication (Paperback)

I bought this book for a class I am taking. I saved almost $20 over the bookstore price, between the price and S+H. I Went with standard shipping which says it can take upto 14 days. I was a little nervous it would take a long time, but it was here in less than a week, 5 days I think, with a weekend in there. Thanks Amazon and Woodys Books.
