I wouldn't normally write book reviews, but I found this book to be very informative without being dull. Had to purchase this book for a Master's course. Was skeptical at first, especially about the price. However, this book is written very well and Daft understands how to keep the reader engaged. Only issue is that the price is a little much, but most college books seem to be that way.

Writing could have been just a little larger for easier reading. Overall, great information to make you think about theories and how they can go many ways. Loads of great material to use in everyday life. I would recommend.
