Needs some editing but great info
13. Dezember 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I just completed the course for which I bought this book. I found numerous issues in the text, wrong words: "managerial" versus "marginal". Dollar figures in examples with transposed numbers. I also found numerous issues in the questions for the tests that evidently came with the text. Someone needs to do a thorough editorial review of the text and issue an a companion errata insert or downloadable document. Some of these issues are very real impediments to understanding the point being made. That said, the book is chock full of current and interesting information and articles and real world stories. My advice is if something isn't making sense to you, parse the sentence to see if you can determine if any of the wording or numbers could be wrong.

Begs for an Editor's Knife

It is common to find a few errors in a textbook, but "Transportation" has so many mistakes - grammatical and otherwise -- that it compromises the accuracy of the book. Parts of it are difficult, if not impossible, to understand. Perhaps to sidestep the negative connotation of the phrase, "what the traffic will bear" - i.e., using a monopoly to take the customer for all he is worth -- the author buries its definition in this impenetrable piece of prose:
"The second meaning, which can be more conveniently expressed in a negative form and which is germane to this discussion, is that no service should be charged a price that it will not bear when, at a lower price, the service could be purchased" (page 106).
On page 119, the author multiplies $8.46 x 110 and gets $93.06. On page 212, the book confuses the student with, "the cost of labor was $14.4 billion or $0.264 cents of every revenue dollar." It should have read, "26 cents". Worse, the facsimile of a commercial invoice on page 340 -- displaying Cost, Insurance, and Freight -- shows Incoterms FAS instead of CIF; such an invoice would never make it past an alert customs official. The sample bill of lading on page 342 is a blank form. More useful would be a commercial invoice and B/L that correspond to the same shipment and are both filled out correctly.

Back in School

I'm working on a Master's Degree and this book was required for one of my classes. The book itself is what you would expect from a textbook. Nothing fancy, nice durable construction. We seem to be going from cover to cover and so far it is well written, easy to use and very up to date. I know Amazon did not ask for a reference, but they were considerably cheaper than other sources. And I got it quicker than I expected, 3-5 days.
