Edited by Thomas L. Brewer, McDonough School of Business, Georgetown University, US, the late Stephen Young, formerly Emeritus Professor of International Business and Co-Director, CIER, Department of Management, University of Glasgow, UK and the late Stephen E. Guisinger, formerly Professor of International Management, University of Texas, Dallas, US

'Each chapter is both thoughtful and provocative in its distilled survey of recent developments and in identifying areas of future interest. As such, there are far more "nuggets" contained here than in most volumes. The book will appeal primarily to (specialist) academic economists and their prospective doctoral students but it also provides a lucid survey of issues and analysis that, in great part is accessible to the informed non-specialist.'
