Great text at a great price!
I am using this text for a Corporate Entrepreneurship class in college. So far I like it, but there are a few needlessly difficult words used in the material. I guess some authors feel "a class above" readers if they can incorporate words that are never used in regular language!

Review of Corp. Entrepreurship Book
I received the product on time and in great condition. I also really enjoyed the savings and will definitely purchase from Amazon in the future.
