Focusing on building students' business vocabulary and skills, this new edition provides coverage of such relevant issues as career choices, the global business environment, ethics, multicultural work-force management and small business management. Included are such topics as quality, multiculturalism, sexual harassment, global competition and small business ethics. A carefully designed pedagogy should help students develop a basic understanding of modern business, and develop greater insight into career possibilities. "Discover your career" vignettes open each chapter to introduce students to the wide variety of careers in business.
