Excerpt from 2400 Business Books and Guide to Business Literature The title of this book, 2400 Business Books, instead of the 1600 Business Books, of the two previous editions, shows how many books this edition names and to a large degree describes. The sub-title, Guide to Business Literature, is added to make it plain that the book is far more than a list of 2400 volumes. It is an index to the contents of those volumes; that is, it lists, in alpha be'tio order, under 2000 different headings, the subjects which are treated in these 2400 books. These headings are in addition to those entries which give the names of the writers of the 2400 books and in addition to the entries which give their titles.

Excerpt from Handbook for Business Letter Writers What good eyeglasses are to the eyes, good English is to the mind. As good eyeglasses enable the eyes really to see the printed page that lies before them, so good English enables the mind to understand easily and clearly the thought that page is intended to express. Success in a competitive business is the outcome not only of ambition and hard work but of full and painstaking preparation. One should learn the meaning of Words. One should develop the ability to write English that will exact ly express his thoughts. Many a good business plan has failed of adoption because of misunderstandings that arose from the awkward and obscure language in which it was written. I have learned this through bitter experience. It is worth while to give oneself a real chance to succeed by getting a thorough preparation for business. Without this preparation, one's letters and business plans are likely to confuse even those who understood the subject in the beginning. With this preparation, one can bring the entire power of his mind to bear in presenting his ideas to his business associates. This book will teach young people to handle intelligently those essential tools of business, words and sentences. Therefore, I am interested in it and recommend it.

This Handbook provides a state-of-the-art survey of research in business history. Business historians study the historical evolution of business systems, entrepreneurs and firms, as well as their interaction with their political, economic, and social environment. They address issues of central concern to researchers in management studies and business administration, as well as economics, sociology and political science, and to historians. They employ a range of qualitative and quantitative methodologies, but all share a belief in the importance of understanding change over time. The Oxford Handbook of Business History has brought together leading scholars to provide a comprehensive, critical, and interdisciplinary examination of business history, organized into four parts: Approaches and Debates; Forms of Business Organization; Functions of Enterprise; and Enterprise and Society. The Handbook shows that business history is a wide-ranging and dynamic area of study, generating compelling empirical data, which has sometimes confirmed and sometimes contested widely-held views in management and the social sciences. The Oxford Handbook of Business History is a key reference work for scholars and advanced students of Business History, and a fascinating resource for social scientists in general.
