OVERVIEW

The publishers of THE INFORMED OUTLOOK provide Executive Summaries of articles at the beginning of each issue so readers can decide up front which are of greatest interest. This is just one of the ways we help readers better use their time (also included are Key Points for most articles and plenty of charts and tables). The Executive Summaries for December 2000 are reprinted below to give you an idea of the topics included in a typical issue and the importance of topics discussed to your company.
