Review: A "must" for any non-native business English learner - Although many of the idioms and expressions Ms. Gillett brings to the page are typical in non-business usage, the huge number of idioms and expressions related to American business English (as opposed to British business English--in some cases they are quite different!) is an asset to any student of this subject. The contents are grouped in chapters by common subject, e.g. Discussing a New Ad Campaign, Motivating A Co-Woker, and Conducting a Performance Review. Learning new idioms and expressions is made simple by an easy-to-read dialog that demonstrates (and can be used with a partner) the usage of each idiom, and then is followed by self- or partnered-checking and review. The accompanying CD clarifies pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation. I highly recommend this text to all--native or non-native speakers of English--who want to fast-track themselves into usage of the American business vernacular. My qualifications to review this book? I teach this subject, among others, at UCSC Extension.
Review: A lot of idoms - I bought this book because I hope to improve my English in business setting. The book is a good buy because it contains variety of business situations which prepares me with words and phrases. It summarizes lots of idioms which are also useful. However, while reading the book, I feel it is difficult to learn. Every sentence is full of idioms, which makes me too tired to read. I finally gave up reading in three days.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A "must" for any non-native business English learner
*by B***. on September 5, 2007*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A lot of idoms

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Practical and Very Useful
*by T***5 on November 17, 2018*

While the publication is not particularly 'new' (first published in 2006), it is impressive that it still manages to cover what's essential in business English. As a result, it may not have much in terms of 'digital' vocabulary, it's a great selection of timeless everyday phrases, expressions and situations. Each chapter is comprised of a dialogue that takes place in a business context, with explanations for vocabulary. The illustrations are rather hideous but ignore them, and you have yourself a really useful text book for ELLs eager to master the basics of business English. It's hard to find 'good' textbooks for business English but this one is a real winner. I could IMMEDIATELY use it for my students. Highly recommended.
