2.0 out of 5 stars Great for someone with NO experience, October 4, 2001

By A Customer

This is basically a text book for a first year college student. The information was relatively vague. I was disappointed, but the book would be very beneficial to someone just starting in the business. I was looking for concrete examples and "life saving" ideas and this book did not offer that.
