Customer Reviews

Griffin Fundamentals of Management Eduspace Plus booklet Fifth Edition

I purchased a book I needed for school and I was completely satisfied. Not only did I get the book for a fraction of the price I would have if I purchased it from my school's book store but I was also able to do so with the click on my mouse. The process was very easy and efficient.

Fundamentals of Management

The book I bought was in excellent shape and it was about 1/2 the price of the local book store.

This is not the place to post Seller Reviews....PLEASE!!!

This is one of the best management books on the market. Dr Griffin really knows his stuff. People continue to post seller reviews here, this is NOT the place. Good or bad, please stop posting seller reviews in the book review area....That's what the seller review section is for.
