I used the first half (chapter 1 to 9) of this book in my Entrepreneurship I course and was going to use the last half in Entrepreneurship II course. Apparently, they changed the textbook to use, so I don't need to read/use this textbook anymore. I may read the last half when I have more time. The textbook covered basic of how to start/prepare a small business. Some parts seemed very fundamental, and some parts seemed somewhat useful. It may depend on what kind of background the reader already has.
