【介紹】：Harvard Business Review This bi-monthly publication includes info on top research, news, and developments in many different fields of business. Their materials are used in classrooms around the world. After the 2009 hire of their new editor-in-chief, HBR started to become a cutting-edge publication that covered business news as it was happening rather than just the academic research that had been its mainstay. As one of the top business schools in the world, Harvard produces in-depth material that is essential reading for business students, professors, and professionals at all levels of their careers. It is geared toward managers more than towards early career professionals, but there is something inside for everyone with an interest in serious business reading.  -------------------------------------------------- 【單字】 bimonthly: 一個月兩次、兩個月一次 publication: 期刊 info: information 縮寫 cutting-edge: 前端 mainstay: 主要 in-depth: 深入 geared toward: 以某某為導向 -------------------------------------------------- 【介紹】：Money If you are looking for a general guide to investing, saving, and budgeting, this is the magazine for you.
