5.0 out of 5 stars Bra bok att köpa
Reviewed in Sweden on 28 December 2023

Detta är en bra bok att ha om man läser företagsekonomi och ska skriva uppsatser/examensarbete. Däremot så ska den bara ses som en uppslagsbok för att ta fram detaljer och inget man bör läsa för 'korvstoppning'. Även om det är bra kunskaper att ha en viss överblick kring.
