Covering contemporary topics and issues such as globalisation, digital technology and business ethics, this is the only textbook that fully supports the OxfordAQA International AS Level Business specification (9625), for first teaching from September 2018. The thematic structure enables students to build on the skills and knowledge gained in previous study, preparing them for their next steps in employment or higher level education, whilst international, real-life case studies enhance students' understanding of current business practice. Furthermore, this book offers exam preparation support across a range of assessment styles, building the skills required to evaluate business behaviour and to examine and interpret the quantitative and qualitative data relevant to business decision making.
