The book is good, but Kindle PC Software is terrible.
This is used on university, but Kindle do not have the option to Zoom in for important tables and figures.

So. My last electronic teaching book I purchase from Amazon and Kindle.

The book is very well-written and thorough. The only reason I gave 4 stars is the fact that the cover is of a poor quality, but I was very happy with the content. If you're a business management student, it will help at times. I myself have used it for one of my projects and I found it useful.
