Book Overview: The most complete reference tool for anyone who works - whatever the industry, wherever in the world Over GBP1,000,000 of consultancy for only GBP40 Free monthly updates for all purchasers who register at www.ultimatebusinessresource.com International coverage A truly user-friendly edition - all updates take into account the results of a reader's feedback survey Competition: The Financial Times Handbook of Management (FT Prentice Hall, 3rd ed, 2004. 800pp, GBP40) contains mainly Best Practice-style essays, and none of the action-oriented articles that readers find most useful. Conversely, The Manager's Book of Checklists (Derek Rowntree, FT Prentice Hall, 1999. 304pp, GBP11.99) offers a selection of solutions to everyday workplace challenges but none of the theory behind them.
