The downside is the missing page numbers for my Kindle Touch. As I'm writing this, my grade is dwindling because I cannot locate "page 144-147" to work on my assignment. I wish I could get a refund, but all I'll be getting is a failing grade for $140 worth of digital disappointment.I've spent many hours of research to find if this is common for the Kindle Touch. To my dismay, there is absolutely no solution if the book does not include the actual page numbers. Even the Kindle App for PC and Android won't interpret the page number. For those who have no idea what I'm talking about here's a brief description:Kindle Touches use 'location' not 'page numbers'. If you have font size 14 and small margins, your total location count may be 20,000+. If you shrink the font size, the total location count might be 15,000+. It adjusts itself according to the digital format; not paper-back page numbers.I understand most books support page numbers, but THIS does not. For the students out there, just pay the extra cash to get the paper-back copy or page number supported digital copy online somewhere else.I am very unhappy about this purchase and wish digital refunds were available. I am willing to change my review if given a chance to buy a non-digital copy. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Only One Access Code But You Will Need Two *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2013* This book only comes with an access code for Cengage Brain and not it's partner site aplia.com this is the site that happens to have what seems like most/all of the assignments like study guides, quizzes and things of the like which means you will have to buy access to aplia which cost as much as this book. Complete bull and another way to scam people out of their money by withholding information that may have resulted in them making a different decision until it's too late and they are over a barrel. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good coverage of a most important subject *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2014* I retired from full-time university administrative work and returned to my university as a part-time lecturer, teaching "Communication for Management." I picked Dr. Guffey's book because it was in use in my department and looked perfect for what I needed. Her textbook is outstanding. She covers the key learning objectives, including: writing emails for persuasion, presentations, resume and job application writing and informal and format reports. She also delves into business etiquette and social media. The book is a bit longer than it needs to be with some repetitiveness. However, she's just proving the point, "Tell them what you will say, say it and then tell them what you said." With 40 years of communication and management experience and degrees in Journalism and Business, I found myself disagreeing with her now and then. But overall, a great book that I plan to use for several terms. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/3470431-essentials-of-business-communication](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/3470431-essentials-of-business-communication) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
