opportunities facing today's managers in organizations large and
small making the text relevant and interesting to students.

overcome challenges, and effectively manage and lead their
organizations allowing students to see real-life management in
action. It mirrors the changes taking place in today's management
practice by incorporating recent developments in management theory
and research. Central to the book's approach, boxed material is
seamlessly integrated into the text and an integral part of the

to instruction. It will include a robust, dynamic website complete
with regularly updated examples of print, online, and broadcast
graphics, as well as useful tutorials and exercises. This book
covers everything you need to know about reporting with graphics;

perspective. A companion website includes regularly updated

for exercises (such as Illustrator templates, images, and/or other
visual reference material) will also be provided on the companion

If Rube's inventions are any indication, "normal" means something
very different in the Goldberg household. For Rube, up is down, in
is out, and the simplest path to accomplishing an everyday
task-like brushing his teeth or getting dressed-is a humorously
complicated one. Follow Rube as he sets out on a typical school
day, overcomplicating each and every step from the time he wakes up
in the morning until the time he goes to bed at night. This book
features fourteen inventions, each depicting an interactive
sequence whose purpose is to help Rube accomplish mundane daily
tasks: a simple way to get ready for school, to make breakfast, to
do his homework, and so much more.
