This book "Communicating for Results" by Cheryl Hamilton and Cordell Parker on communications is really a great help for all the students and professionals. I studied this book when I was a student and it helped me a lot. .It is so interesting that when I started going through it, I read it like a novel and couldn't stop myself till the time I completed it. I would recommend this book for all the business students and professionals.
