'In the third edition, McKenzie and Lee extend the economic way of thinking further into how the structure of firms' organization, finance, and pay affect their profitability and, in the process, make a significant contribution to the science of managing people in the firm setting. With updated sections on the housing bubble, its collapse, and the policies that produced it, they offer more coverage on public policy than the traditional managerial economics text and solid explanations of the actual human behavior 'behind the curves'. With behavioral economist's findings infused and analyzed throughout the text, this is a 'must see' for faculty teaching the MBAs.' J. R. Clark, Probasco Chair, University of Tennessee, Chattanooga
