'I particularly like its straightforward, functional approach, which makes it easy for the student to understand. I also like the liberal use of examples and case studies, which are bang up to date and still topical. ' - Mark Godson, Sheffield Hallam University '...forces students to think conceptually and this is refreshing...it offers rigorous treatment of the important concepts...' - Dr Brian Carlisle, Honoray Professor of Managment, Samara State University, Russia 'This text makes, in my opinion, a considerable contribution to the teaching material available in this area. An excellent text.' - Ray Rogers, Coventry Business School
