Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Book Review
The book was accurately described, and only took a few days to get here. Very satisfied!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - fast shipping
The book arrived in the condition they specified. I was buying used so I didn't expect anything perfect. The cover only had a few abrasions and only some of the pages were highlighted. They shipped it fast. I believe I got the book by the end of the week I ordered it.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Timing
I will never again order anything sent via "media mail". It must go around the world and back before it gets to you. There was also no confirmation on when the item shipped. I had to ask multiple times. It would be good if there was another shipping option. I would have happily paid more to get it in time for my class.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Clear and Precise Instruction
This textbook provides clear and precise instruction on the teaching of strategic management principles. It covers briefly a wide breadth of strategic management topics.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Strategic Management: Concept and Cases
This book was purchased as a text for a four unit senior Global Strategic Management class. I have found the companion web site to be very helpful. The chapter powerpoints are located there along with case and financial analysis tutorials.

Graphs, tables and charts are use to help explain and summorize important topics.
