All-New Features in This Edition!
Greater Emphasis on E-Business
When preparing the Tenth Edition, the authors dedicated themselves to the most extensive revision ever. The most significant change is the expanded coverage of the technological revolution in business. Business Today's nine-way integrated approach to e-business reinforces its importance to students.

Trademark Features—All Updated for This Edition
End-of-Chapter Skill-Building Activities and Exercises
As stated in the SCANS (Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills) report from the Department of Labor, it is essential that students meet national standards of academic and occupational skills. Like no other introduction to business text, Business Today emphasizes the skills and competencies necessary for students to make the transition from academia to the workplace.
Business Today includes an extraordinary number of pedagogical devices that simplify teaching, facilitate learning, stimulate critical thinking, maintain interest and enjoyment, and illustrate the practical application of chapter concepts.

MASTERING GLOBAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL SKILLS
Now that so many businesses are affected by global affairs, students need a stronger understanding of geography. Each of these end-of-part exercises (of which one always focuses on cultural diversity) describes a real-world business situation and asks students to complete an activity.
Learning Tools That Help Develop Skills and Enhance Comprehension
Business Today uses a variety of helpful learning tools to reinforce and apply chapter material as well as stimulate higher-level thinking skills. These learning tools include:
Lively, Conversational Writing Style
Read a few pages of this textbook and then read a few pages of another introduction to business textbook. We think you will immediately notice how the lucid writing style in Business Today makes the material pleasing to read and easy to comprehend. The Authors carefully monitored the text's content and reading level to make sure they are neither too simple nor too difficult.
State-of-the-Art Design with New Exhibits. An inspiring new text design is engrossing and attractive, yet businesslike and professional. And, a striking new selection of exhibits (which the authors refer to as "Visuals 2000+) have been created especially for this new edition. Exhibits appear frequently throughout the text to highlight and reinforce key chapter concepts and to provide students with more useful ways for remembering the information presented. The art program—numerous exhibits and photographs—amounts to a course in itself.
