A Concise Dictionary of Business

The 4000 entries in this new dictionary should be useful to all those engaged in the study and conduct of business.

All the traditional areas are covered - accountancy, commerce, shipping, insurance, advertising, management, industrial relations, and banking - as well as the new terminology that has developed around the globalization of stock, commodity, and financial markets.

In addition to "dead-cat bounce", "drop-dead fee", and such EEC-related terms as ERM and Euro-bond, the dictionary also offers concise explanations of key economic and computing terms.

The dictionary should be of use to students at all levels of business courses, business people, lawyers, bankers, accountants, advertising agents and insurance agents.
