Customer Reviews

A-Level Business studies
This book by Ian Marcouse has identified a growing need for text books about business studies to be all-encompassing. To cover most if not all identifiable areas of the subject at A Level on its own is a worthy achievement, but this book does so much more than simply present a multitude of facts and expect students to digest these in a half-hearted frenzy the day before the exam. It describes the information in terms of the world of business now, how this may change in the future and whether this would be advantageous or disadvantageous to the business world. Excellent diagrams, graphs, illustrations and the general layout of the book are also superb as they allow the student to dip in and out / learn little by little without placing too much stress on understanding of long passages. This book is not only for students, and has a lot to offer also to those simply wanting a quick reference or an introduction to more advanced business strategies and process. Perhaps the only drawback that I can place with this book is its enormous size which makes it perhaps more suited to keeping at home rather than carrying to school/ college/ work. Despite this it is well worth the asking price.

Clear, concise, easy to use, essential for A Level students
A wonderful textbook that provides up to date examples from the business world. A great reference book that backs up classroom use. The questions are aimed at a variety of levels, so they can be adapted for individual use. I would recommend it to any A Level Business Studies student.
