Recensioner i media

"Written from the perspective of an educator and practitioner, Bulgu and Islam's book offers a fresh approach to deal with crisis management in terms of strategic and financial decision-making processes in the much less-represented but continuously growing SME sector... The book is clearly written, reader- friendly, and comprehensive enough to be used as a complementary textbook in related business courses." By - Elisa Muresan, Ph.D., Associate, Risk Solutions, S&P, New York "There is a gap in the literature pertaining to crisis management in SMEs. This book fills in this gap. I believe that the book will be an invaluable resource for all managers, policy-makers and academic researchers concerned with entrepreneurship and SMEs everywhere." By - Professor Basu Sharma, Faculty of Administration, University of New Brunswick, Canada
