Wendy N. Powell · 2010
65/100
👎 Skip It
Wendy Powell's consulting-and-teaching background gives this book a grounded, practical feel, and the use of humor and vignettes keeps it from reading like a textbook. The institutional endorsements — a Council of the EU library guide, StrategyDriven — suggest it performs its intended function reasonably well. The 2010 publication date and limited critical reception keep it from standing out in a crowded field.
