4 out of 5 stars An excellent basic introduction with good advice........2003-12-30

I bought my copy at a small store in Cairo, Egypt and devoured it.

The layout is appealing but a bit too appealing for my taste - a little too liberal with the color in areas that do nothing to enhance the sound advice within.

I've read many books on retailing and even owned a couple businesses myself. This book is better than most and I especially appreciated the explanation on location for your retail business. These authors explain why one type of location will work for a certain class of business, but not for another class - I've not found many writers that explain this differentiation, but it is of especial importance.

I rated this book four stars, but 4-1/2 would be more fair. The book is a good introduction but is skewed a little too sharply towards chain stores and franchises. Still, no serious entrepreneur should be without this book in their library!

I also greatly appreciated the lessons learned advice.

Retail Management is as useful in Alexandria, Egypt as in Alexandria, Virginia!

        5 out of 5 stars Get correct edition.......2006-01-23

        Amazon's listing for this book is very confusing....as seems to often be the case with Amazon. The 5th edition was released in 2003 (ISBN # 0072553928) and the 4th edition was released in 2001 (ISBN # 0072497017). Vastly different books and more care by Amazon should be given when listing books. It can be done.....Barnes and Noble does it at their website.
        Be careful when purchasing this book.

        4 out of 5 stars Basic introduction with a few bright spots.......2003-02-12

        This book serves as a basic introduction to retail, though it often feels like "baby talk". It basically describes, without much analysis, the types of policies retailers adopt in several areas including merchandising, inventory management, ordering, HR, finance, store layout, etc. Good as a reference to what others are doing, but not at the cutting edge of retail.

        4 out of 5 stars A realistic review of Retailing...........1999-07-30

        RMgmt is a great book with valuable case studies from people with REAL experience.

        From concept to info systems, the book helps the reader really understand the critical areas of a retail business and the virtal measures
