 Great Organization, Wealth of Information
As an undergraduate student, I found this book to be extremely helpful. The organization is logical, the choice of subjects gave a great introduction, and the information was written at just the right level.
The book begins by introducing the concepts of globalization, the macroeconomic issues in each region of the world, the political issues an MNC faces, and ethical issues that are relevant if an MNC wishes to be socially responsible. The authors then give a great overview of how an MNC can begin to deal with cultural issues, spending plenty of time on Hofstede, Trompenaar, and other research in the area. This section is a great way to introduce the topic and inspire further research on cultural dimensions and measurements. The book then moves on to strategic management and methods of control, with excellent treatment of European, Asian, and American styles of management and how these can be blended and synergized.
As of 2007, the case studies were highly relevant and will continue to be for the near future. Moreover, they are designed to closely follow the subject of the chapter and inspire deeper undertsanding. These objectives are accomplished in a very interesting way, and any student will appreciate the relevance of the studies.
International Management Book Review.
This is an excellent text book and can also be used outside classrooms for regular reading. The books provides an insight and in depth analysis of globalization, and its impact on a number of business organizations around the globle.
