Guide to Financial Markets
Financial markets have been around ever since people started trading crops with each other. They take many different forms and operate in many different ways. But all of them, whether highly organised, like the New York Stock Exchange, or highly informal, like money-changers in Africa, serve the same basic functions, which range from providing a way of setting prices and valuing assets, through raising capital or investing it, to managing exposure to risk. There is no better reference than this fully revised and updated fourth edition.

Business Consulting
There's scarcely a major company that does not use consultants and the public sector is increasingly turning to consultants for help in delivering public services. Three-quarters of consulting work is done for clients where the consulting firm has an established relationship. The spread of outsourcing and off-shoring, the rise of the professional procurement department, wider use of contingency fees and a squeeze on margins have all combined to reshape the environment in which consultants operate dramatically.

Guide to Organisation Design
This guide sets out to provide insights and practical help on how to avoid the common mistakes made when enterprises set about restructuring themselves. Each chapter looks at a specific aspect of organisation design and is illustrated with real company examples. Risk of failure can be greatly reduced through effective organisational design that encourages high performance and adaptability to changing circumstances. Organisation design is a straightforward business process but curiously managers rarely talk about it and even more rarely take steps to consciously design or redesign their business for success.
