Daft does a nice job

The case studies are really, really current and of reasonable depth - I enjoyed reading them so much I actually considered keeping this book. In all, the author uses real world examples to convey the message; I couldn't think of a better way to teach the subject.

Great customer service

I ordered the text book Management by Richard Daft online from Amazon, for a class I was taking. I lost my tracking number and couldn't remember what form of shipping I had requested ... I used Amazon's customer service online and I received a response the very next day letting me know the date I could expect the book. The book arrive on the day it was promised. I will continue to use Amazon for future text orders.

Easy access to the world of Management

This book serves as a good introductory text to the interesting and vastly complex field of management. As with anything comprehensive, a single book cannot cover (in depth) all that needs to be covered and thus, some one who aims for detailed information on ERPs, supply-chain management, Porter's 5 Forces, Fredrick Taylor's early thoughts on scientific management, or Maslow's hierarchy of needs... will need to read the respective books to satisfy demand.

However, if you are looking for a general overview of the subject of management, Richard L. Daft's book is a great way to acquire that knowledge. Written in an entertaining and colourful manner, the book introduces most of the essential ideas of modern management & organizational theory playfully and with ease, providing a sound foundation on which further studies can be based and which will ultimately facilitate access to more complex materials.

In my eyes an excellent book for its intended target group: A recommended read for those new to the discipline of management.

Not the best service

When I purchased the book online it said the book was in stock. However, once I placed the order the book was no longer in stock. I had projects and test due and I still did not have a book. The seller told me that I would not have the book till Sep 15th. And I ordered the book on Aug 25, and purchased express delivery. However, I did get my refund in a timely manner.

One of the best in its field

In my opinion this is one of the best text books on management I read. I am using it extensively with undergraduate students for whom the English is a foreign language, and still they do not encounter any difficulties, either in understanding the text or the cases.
