Small Business Management in the 21st Century

Yet it brings a fresh perspective by incorporating three distinctive and unique themes and an important new feature (Disaster Watch) which is embedded throughout the entire text. These themes assure that students see the material in an integrated context rather than a stream of separate and distinct topics.

Web sources tvary widely in their credibility, value, and appropriateness for a college-level assignment.
