A longtime Barron's handbook for use in the classroom as well as the office, this newly revised edition of "Business English" is better than ever.

"This fun, flexible and accessible photocopiable business English resource book contains 43 games and activities. The material is mainly functional, focusing on the most commonly practised functions on the business English syllabus. This means that the book can be used to complement a wide range of business English courses. It provides learners with an opportunity to practise relevant language and communication skills in a variety of business situations. It is aimed mainly at adult students who work in a business context and need English at work, or pre-experience learners who plan to enter the business world and use English there.
