 A very good book if you wonder what MBA is all about June 6, 2008

I recommend this book to everyone who wonders what MBA is all about. The chapters are small and not really boring. Language is excellent - it makes you feel reading forward. The book very concisely describes what are different segments taught in business schools. Before reading this book, I didn't have a clue about MBA. This books nearly answered all of my basic MBA queries.
Another book to read before you start your MBA May 10, 2008

A fantastic primer for your MBA - a little too American for my personal taste in that examples et cetera are US companies but a really good overview of the type of topics to be covered.
Get this book and go through the 10-day process and you'll already be ahead in your first lessons on an MBA - useful for revision purposes too!
very well written and excellent information April 27, 2008

I'll agree with K Bert to a point. However I started my MBA on the Open University a few months ago and read this book a few months before and actually found it a nice introduction.
Granted it can't cover every topic in massive detail, but what it does give you is a nice framework for (what I assume to be from what I've studied so far) an entire MBA, granted possibly one in the US. However most of it is pretty identical so far.
For the price I'd recommend anyone contemplating buying this book to do so, I found it very useful, well written and quite easy going.

This is a very wordy poorly written business book. I certaintly don't think it provides a sufficiently useful guide to business beyond the obvious. It has very little reference to actual theories or prinicples other than generic views. Taking the marketing chapter as an example: as a marketing professional with CIM qualifications, I would expect a "10-day MBA" approach to encapsulate a much sharper critique of the processes and strategies. Instead, you get a very basic view of marketing and the buying process. The language also is very self indulgent and "American talk show" with some of the examples. Not a good buy in my opinion
