I purchased this textbook for class. It is very easy to read, but honestly not very evidence based. There are many opinions and worn out sayings used in the text, but very few references to research on management practices. Most of the illustrations are stupid cartoons.I have now read half of the text and had had only one ah ha moment. I would not recommend this unless you need it for your course.
The book itself meets the needs that that I have for my class assignments.In regards to the condition of the book itself. The binding is a bit cracked and a couple places where the cover is lifted. There is highlighter and writing on many of the pages, which I find very distracting. There is also scribbling on the entire inside of the back cover.
The material is dry but simple to read. There are no great insights. Don't get it unless your professor requires it. However, if you can borrow one, do it.
If the Dunn textbook is required for your coursework, this is a great option. The text arrived quickly in perfect condition. Very competitively priced. Happy with the purchase.
Although this book was required for class, I found it easy to read and chapters were outlined nicely and how important words were were on the side of the page with definition.
Not the most fun topic for school but very important. Easy to understand and write about for graduate school. If the topic is required the book is worth purchasing.
This book was easy to read, lots of great reference material. You will want to keep this book and use it to reference other chapters in your life.
Good book on Healthcare Management. I used this book in several of my masters classes. I would recommend.Megan Tengerstrom
