Review
At our initial meetings with new instructors, we recommend they use Guffey because it makes teaching the course easy. She provides everything and anything you might need. Very comprehensive.

The Guffey text is well founded from a pedagogical standpoint. No one does it better than Mary Ellen.

The diversity of teaching and student supplements appears to be the most detailed I've seen with any business communication textbook. The Career Coach, Ethical Insight, and Tech Talk boxes in each chapter are unique as a way to superimpose themes throughout the text.

Feedback from Author
Dear Amazon:

The book you list here is the Student Study Guide to accompany my hardbound textbook BUSINESS COMMUNICATION: PROCESS AND PRODUCT. By listing this "paperback" at $26.95 and by not identifying it as the Student Study Guide, you are misleading readers. They think that a paperbound version of the complete book is available. Not true! Please identify the $26.95 book as Student Study Guide to accompany BC:PP. Thanks!

Perfect for the Classroom!
I am an instructor at a business college, and this textbook (along with the accompanying website for students) proved to be wonderful for use in the classroom. The chapters were lively (even for a four-hour lecture class!) and provided real-world details and examples. The website accompanying the textbook has plenty of extra information for classroom use, as well as activities that students can do to review chapters and test their grammar skills.

A Great Book for College Students
Business Communication: Process and Product has been the best textbook I have worked with. Everything is presented in a clear and reader-friendly manner. Of all the books I have had to purchase for my courses, this was well worth the investment. Even though I recently earned my degree, and am no longer taking classes, I am still benefiting from owning this book.
