Reviews

An excellent, practical handbook that covers all financial aspects of running a business. What is particularly pleasing about this book is that it deals with finance within the framework of International business... This approach leads non-financial managers through the minefield of numbers without fear and demonstrates the 'art of the possible'. A great advertisement for the value of sound financial management.

Nikki Cole, Director, BlueSky Cat Limited; Council Member, Brunel University

Financial Management for Non-Financial Managers is an essential introduction to the topic, particularly useful for those starting a business and for SME businesses seeking to finance future growth. It is a practical and useful guide, supported by helpful case studies that help bring financial management issues to life.

Clear, thoughtful and relevant, a very readable introduction for the non-specialist. The case studies bring to life key points that every manager needs to understand. This book could save quite a few people from making basic mistakes that could cost them their business.

Piers Cain, Head of Knowledge Management, Chartered Management Institute

A good book of Financial Management is borderless; the author has managed to bring the subject up to most current level. It is a must-read for practicing managers and good course book for Business Studies students.
