Recensioner i media

Each chapter is well researched and presented, and as a whole the book makes an excellent contribution to the topic. In my view, this book will become as widely cited as Whitley (1992)'s Business Systems in East Asia. - Axele Giroud, Senior Lecturer in International Business and Management, Manchester Business School, UK. A very readable and interesting study on Culture and Business in Asia, which will be of considerable use to academics and practitioners interested in Asian management. It contains some original empirical field-research based on interviews with a range of managers and business-persons in their cultural and institutional settings, which allows it to transcend the textbook format but at the same time remain relevant to undergraduate and postgraduate student readerships. The study offers many insights into Asian business cultures across the region and how this has shaped the emerging economic prominence of the nations involved. The main thesis of the book is well-structured and written, easy to follow and is for the most part jargon-free. This study is a welcome addition to the literature in the field. - DR. MALCOLM WARNER, Emeritus Professor and Fellow, Wolfson College, Cambridge; and Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, UK.
