Book Subtitle | Connecting Theory To Reality |
Book Description | This textbook is designed to help students understand the key issues of global business by connecting theory with reality. Divided into three parts, it covers critical issues of international business, introducing readers to topics they will connect with, and discussing core concepts. With a user-friendly pedagogy and a host of helpful visuals, the authors offer a practitioner?s perspective on global business knowledge, examining familiar theory on trade, direct investment, and political environment alongside fresh topics, like geopolitical conflicts, emerging markets, and sustainability. Over sixty case studies are included to illustrate the magnitude and complexity of global business involving different stakeholders. Undergraduate students looking for an introduction to international business and graduate students looking to apply their knowledge will find Global Business stimulating, since it demonstrates how theories and concepts work in real-world business settings. |
