Review
"I really like the Cornerstone features found throughout the text. I really think they help students and teachers stay focused on what is important in the chapter."
"I would consider this book for our managerial class. It seems to be well thought out and it does have a good amount of exercises, colorful diagrams/charts and lots of examples throughout the text which usually stimulate the students' thinking and reading."
"The cornerstone feature...permits the students to retune the computational instructions as often as necessary to reinforce their skills, without re-reading the entire topical coverage. The "cornerstone" is an inspired feature!"
