Customer comments on this selection.
 Harvard is good, but something else might be better
Harvard puts out a lot of good material and you might buy this book on that basis. However, why not check out what is inside and compare it against some other offerings on Amazon? My favorite is "Business Basics Bestseller 1" which gives a good overview of the financial side of a company without bogging you down in the details of accounting. If you want to run a business instead of do journal entries, it's a great pick. Use the link below to take a look at it, then buy what you like best.

 Finance for Managers (Harvad Business Esssentials)
It wasn't all what I had expected - I thought it would have given a deeper insight also to the financing aspects.
 Well written and a great reference book to keep handy
A really excellent reference book to keep handy. Gives a great overview of key finance concepts and is easy to follow. It was well worth the price and the time spent reading it.
Book Review
This book is well written, and clearly explains the financial concepts in a manner that makes it easy for the layman to understand. I highly recommend this book for all non-financial types, who want to better understand the world of fiancial statemetns and data.
 Don't buy just for the pedigree
I bought this book for the Harvard pedigree when other books offer more practical detail for the target audience. The text concentrates too much on taxation, a subject unto itself, and calculation of the time value of money. In particular the TVM issue focuses on formula versus concept which is not a service to the audience. Overall, I expected more from a Harvard Business Essentials book.
