Deal! is a comprehensive pre-work Business English course for speakers of Dutch. It includes a reference book, featuring vocabulary, skills and grammar, as well as a course book, focusing on oral and written communication.

This course book includes a "business boot camp" introducing learners to what's in it for Me, My Business and My World as well as 10 free-standing chapters that look at a wide range of business-related topics from corporate culture, mergers and takeovers to marketing, globalization and innovation. It features dozens of exciting, authentic and up-to-date cases on Willy Wonka and Karl Marx, Earth Hour, big business and the Fukushima earthquake, women and Mad Men, the waterless washing machine, Ben & Jerry's and Unilever, and fake Van Goghs made in China. It draws on video materials from international media and new texts from newspapers and on-line resources.
