The Best Australian Business Writing 2012

About this book

Have Baby Boomers been forced back to work since the global financial crisis? Will pre-commitment cards for poker machines coerce the addicted gambler to think before he or she acts? Is airport security a waste of time and money? Covering topics such as these with more than simply a series of numbers and facts, this book is informative, provocative, funny, even moving. A first edition of a new annual anthology, this account not only showcases the best of Australian business writing, but also demonstrates just how good—and how important—writing about business can be.
