Reviews

'This valuable book brings together contributions from an impressive range of experts to address the most important development in international business today. It offers a wide-ranging coverage of internationalization by different types of firm from the BRIC countries and other emerging economies. In so doing, it produces ample evidence to challenge traditional western-based views of how and why firms go abroad.' - Professor John Child, Emeritus Chair of Commerce, Birmingham Business School, UK
