Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Missing pages

Have a good day.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Too many editions, too expensive
We've used this book for three years to teach college business communications, but it may be time to hunt another book. The book is too expensive at $100. Also, the publisher has issued three new editions in the past three years. That makes it impossible for students to re-sale used books and is frustrating to students and instructors.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - DO NOT USE THIS TEXT
I used both the previous edition and current edition of this text to teach college students. Both editions were full of errors and contradictory statements.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This text is highly effective for teaching communications!
Pensacola Junior College has used Effective Communication for Colleges in our Business Communications class for several years.

The examples shown are timely and appealing to our students. Supplementary materials are helpful and easy to access. Keep up the good work!
