A Dictionary of Business


6400 entries

This comprehensive dictionary is a wide-ranging guide to all aspects of modern business, covering topics from marketing and advertising to banking and international finance, and everything in between. It also includes terms from law and economics that are relevant to business, and covers aspects of computing and printing that a business person might be expected to know.
An especially unique and helpful feature is its coverage of business jargon. From dead-cat bounce and the J-curve effect, through the intricacies of the Lady Macbeth strategy and market skimming, to the difference between broad and narrow money and what a shark-watcher does, the dictionary makes an ever-expanding business vocabulary accessible to everyone.
