Want to know how to finesse a merger? Introduce a new product? Empower your staff? This thick (2,172 pages) tome is a generous resource to thumb through when you need to answer these and many other business-related questions. It's like an entire business library was shrunk to fit between two covers. Insights and practical guidance are divided into the following sections: best practices; checklists; summaries of pertinent business books; smart profiles of business powerhouses from John Jacob Astor to Frank W. Woolworth; a dictionary of the latest lingo; an almanac of facts on the global economy; and quickie business reference recommendations such as Web sites, magazines, and journals.
