Required book for my college class. If you go to Baker College in Michigan you can actually get through the class without this book. I have used it once for an in class assignment and a few other times as reference for formatting. For the formatting I could have just looked it up online or used another book I already owned.The contents of the book are okay, if you are wanting something up to date to use as a reference when writing an work related material (professional emails, memos, etc.) this is a good book to have. But it is horribly over priced.
Wife needed it for college and it was available for instant download on all of our devices equipped with the Kindle Reading App. Very Easy and Very Fast. Will definitely use this method in the future again.
This text is verbose. The authors should heed their own advice and revise for brevity.
I rented this book for school and no matter what your major is, you should read this book. It had a lot of insight into the modern business world with tips on proper business communication and writing. I learned valuable tools that will stick with my for a lifetime.
I can't believe how overpriced this textbook is!! And not only that, the access code that it came with that I need for my class does not work so I had to buy a separate copy from the school bookstore!!
The book was correct but the access code did not work for my class at FAU-Boca. I am so frustrated that now my only option is to pay another $96 for the correct access code. I read through other reviews and have now found out that this has happened to two other people. Very disappointed. Not sure I will purchase textbooks through again.
Read the fine print. Any rental the access code isn't guaranteed and I can guarantee the access code has been used. They should not even state "with access code" unless they are just selling the new book.
This book is awesome for business and other career majors looking to get back in the job scene. the information provided in this book is willing for some to buy it. besides the long chapters this gets a five star.
