Reviews
If you've taken any kind of college classes before, you probably already know most of the things in this book. Very disappointing. This might be suitable for high school juniors or seniors, but anyone else capable of independent thought will be discouraged.She talks about ethical behavior from companies in one part, but then what a great success they have by laying off 230,000 workers.Really, it's just a collection of old ideas in a list. Definitely NOT worth the price. I've never been more disappointed.
