My reason for purchasing this book was for a class and I swore I would sell it since I paid so much for it and thought I'd never use it again. However, after reading for my scheduled assignments, there is so much information in this text that can be used for day to day life, especially in the corporate world. I'd recommend it...if you can afford it, it's a little expensive to purchase just to use for information.
This is a good book, but I quickly realized I didn't need it. I have worked for 15 years in various office settings, and was able to complete many homework assignments without the assistance of this book. The only pieces that I had to focus on were the different office conflict scenarious listed through the book, but if your class does not focus on these entries, the book may not be too useful.

I obtained this book more than ten years ago when I took Ms. Hamilton's class at Tarrant County College. I still have it and refer to it from time to time. I also used the communication styles from this book for a team presentation in another class, at University of Phoenix, a few years ago. My teammate and I had both taken Ms. Hamilton's class at TCC (different years) and were very impressed with the book, had both held on to it and use it for reference in communication styles, resumes, interviews, and presentations. I highly recommend it.
This book has some great information in it and it could stand alone very easily on its content. The CD-ROM, however, needs work. It is nearly impossible to install since it continually prompts you to install QuickTime 6.0, even if you already have it! The CD-ROM also requires you to turn off all of your virus protection to use it. I give the actual book a B+ and the CD-ROM a grade of D-. Please let your instructor know of the CD-ROM issues so complaints can be filed with the publisher to get this fixed. SIMILAR ITEMS: |
