The Business Environment: Themes and Issues by Paul Wetherly

This successful text provides a unique and stimulating approach to the business environment. While the classic 'PESTLE' structure is outlined in Part One, Part Two is used to explore key issues such as globalization, sustainability, equal opportunities, and entrepreneurship. Written in a highly engaging and accessible style, the book introduces students to critical thinking via the 'stop and think' boxes. The coherent themes running throughout the book enable students to gain a holistic understanding of the business environment.
