Practical ideas from the best brains in business.

This is a sharp, jargon-free guide to the core curriculum of an MBA program. MBA in a Book shows how to master the big ideas of business and use them in a practical way to build and enhance career success.

Great business thinkers, such as Michael Porter, Rosabeth Kanter, and Bill George of Harvard Business School; Paul Argenti of the Tuck School at Dartmouth; Jeffrey Sonnenfeld of Yale; Peter Senge of MIT; the entrepreneur and inventor Dean Kamen; and the financial innovator Michael Milken are just a few of the best brains in business, providing the intellectual nourishment that will help you play the game of business at the highest level.

Not Bad

A bit misleading. Definitely not an MBA in a book. But, if really interested in business and business strategy you might like this book. There are some sections that provide some good insight into corporate governance and operations. I especially enjoyed the communications sections.

Corrupted by political injection

Skip this and get The Personal MBA and/or The Ten Day MBA.
Brilliant reading by Arthur Morey, as per usual.
I found that, after 4 chapters, the author is as focused on propagating their political ideology as trying to convey the important substance that readers want. Not worth the time when The Ten Day MBA and The Personal MBA are already great and not chalked full of ideological presentation.

Loads of Advice.

Lacking in technical knowledge, but still worth the buy. Great for rookies.

Must have the wrong book

This book is not what is promised to be "a sharp, jargon-free guide to the core curriculum of an MBA program". This is a collection of articles with no obvious connection to the MBA curriculum exept from being written by prominent scientists and researchers. Example: The first two is about adwances in medical research??? Waste of time.
