MBA Starter Kit: Your Guide to Options, Finances and Value in a Master of Business Administration Degree in Chicago by the Chicago Tribune Staff is a collection of the newspapers' annual features on Exactly What It Says In The Title for prospective local-or-visiting students, free courtesy of publisher Agate's Digital imprint.
Technically, this has previously been offered free sometime in 2013, but it doesn't seem to be showing up on MR when I do a forum search, so I'm just going to treat it as a new offering for the purposes of the daily non-repeat thread count, since I had another medical procedure done a few days ago and don't feel up to digging in the slushpile or the backlog. And it's educational, sort of.
Currently free, probably just until the weekend @
B&N (may also drop in the
UK),
Amazon (not available to Canadians, but also free in the
UK), and directly @
the publisher's website (DRM-free PDF available worldwide).
