Summary: How am I going to figure out what "solutions" means?
Date: 2004-09-16 - 
Comment: I'm working on a satirical business dictionary (some samples are posted on my website). Consequently, I read this book cover-to-cover looking for fodder.
As I do have real business experience, I can say with some authority that this book is pretty thorough. It might be a tad heavy on the accounting lingo; but, unfortunately, that seems to be the way business is heading.
Hopefully Barron's next edition will include some of the new jargon we're hearing - like the ubiquitous "solutions," as well as "Enron," "Martha Stewart," and the surprisingly absent, "restarting earnings." Thankfully, "proactive" is included.
Why not five stars? Well, it is a dictionary of business terms.

Summary: Excellent Reference Resource
Date: 2004-01-09 -
Comment: The "Dictionary of Business Terms" is an excellent reference for business people, educators, and students, alike. While it is relatively small, it provides concise, easy to understand definitions for some 7000 business terms.Best of all, it can fit quite easily in your pocket. If you are in any way involved in business, this is a must have reference. I would say more, but, hey, it's not like a dictionary has a plot you can comment on.
