Review:

'Covers absolutely everything you're likely to encounter from bureaucracy to finance, marketing, display, and staff.' Art Book Review (Nov 2007) 'The subject matter flows well from one chapter to the next and in a very logical order, so the things you need to think about first, you read about first, and the book will give you a lot to read about.' Art Buisness Today (Jan 2008)
