4 reviews
Gordon R. Lewis

FT Press, 2003

A nice guy... A nice book...
I took one of Dr. Robbins' management courses at SDSU over a dozen years ago, and to this day I'm still using the decision-making techniques he presented, in my own life...

Happily, his writing style mirrors his speaking style, and it makes for an enjoyable read... I recommend ...
