Description
The revitalized and new author team of Ivancevich, Konopaske and Matteson has listened and responded to suggestions from reviewers, instructors and students on how to continue to make this book more user-friendly. To accomplish this, OBM 7e has achieved the difficult goal of balancing between preserving its key strengths (i.e. thorough, current, good mixture of research and practice, integrated text with relevant readings/cases/exercises) and revitalizing its content and internal appearance in several high-impact ways. "Preserving while revitalizing" captures the spirit of what the authors used as a gulding principle while writing this book.
