Description
The first edition of this Handbook was acclaimed by reviewers and quickly established itself as a standard work. It covers the entire spectrum of management activity: strategy, operations and personal skills.
For this second edition the text has been thoroughly revised and three completely new chapters have been added. The book now contains sixty-three chapters, each contributed by an authority on the subject in question. The result is probably the most comprehensive single-volume guide to management practice in the English language.
