Publisher Synopsis
"I think the Business English book is one of the best books I have ever used. It is comprehensive, and I can teach students grammar even though many have never learned the basics. When they leave this course at the end of the semester, most have gained the confidence necessary to express themselves well in the business world as well as the confidence needed to express themselves in writing."
