One year I decided to try a business communication textbook from another publisher, but I immediately returned to the Guffey text this year. The quality of the content and support resources for Essentials just can't be matched., I really love Essentials of Business Communication for my students. I'm always alarmed at how poor their grammar and writing skills are, and this is one of the few books that addresses those skills effectively., As an experienced instructor teaching business communication for the first time, I want to praise the layout and clear instructions provided for Essentials of Business Communication. Getting to know a textbook usually takes a lot of time, but I read the Instructors Manual, and it helped me prepare quickly for my class and get me up to speedwithout having to spend valuable time learning how to present the material. The how-toinstructions for EBC gave me a comfort level that would otherwise have taken several semesters., "As an experienced instructor teaching business communication for the first time, I want to praise the layout and clear instructions provided for Essentials of Business Communication.
