“I can’t resist the urge to let you know how excellent the Pocket MBA pieces are.”

If you’re an attorney who wants to know more about the business side of your clients’ legal concerns, but is anxious about the math you’d have to absorb, PLI’s Pocket MBA: Everything an Attorney Needs to Know About Finance is for you.

Each volume features weekly issues of PLI’s popular online Pocket MBA newsletters, now read by thousands of subscribers.  Each chapter covers a key finance or accounting term, defines it clearly and concisely, with minimal math, and shows how the term works in the real world.

Covering terms as tame as “capital budgeting” and “S corporation” and as wild as “ZEBRA” and “naked short,” attorney, humorist, and award-winning author Michael Singer laces his succinct coverage with an assortment of engaging anecdotes, analogies, pop-culture references, and “what-if” examples that make useful points while keeping you fully engaged. Where appropriate, Pocket MBA offers Author Updates that keep you up to speed on noteworthy developments related to particular featured terminology.

The Pocket MBA series is an ideal reference set for every attorney and for every general reader interested in getting a practical handle on contemporary financial issues.
