This new edition maintains the strengths that made the first four editions so successful. Logical, well organized, and well respected, Business covers all of the Introduction to Business basics from a management perspective. It contains hundreds of examples of business practice, helping students bridge the gap from theory to practice. Particular emphasis in the new edition is placed on E-commerce, technology, entrepreneurship, and Canadian content.
One of the most comprehensive -- yet readable -- surveys of all major facets of business operations and management, this best-selling text moves from broad, general perspectives to focused coverage of specific business functions. A carefully orchestrated variety of boxes, cases, vignettes, illustrations, quotes, a running "field trip," interactive questions, and an informal first-person narrative all work together to draw students dynamically into the real world of contemporary business -- further enriched by a host of supplements, including a multimedia CD-ROM.
