I need a book recommendation
    #10519457 - 06/16/09 08:13 PM (14 years, 7 months ago)

Can anyone recommend a book on international business? 

I'm looking for a book with a focus on the way the world is right now--I'll pick up the theory from elsewhere as I go along.  I want to learn about different tariff systems, tax havens, where international investment is happening, considerations when importing/exporting goods, different corporate structures in different countries, etc...

I've found many books on international business on Amazon, but sadly 99% of books in general are crap, and some of them happen to be expensive, so I'd like to discuss a book that somebody recommends a bit to figure out if it's what I want or not before plunking down $$$...

Has anyone delved into this much?  Meams?

Sorry my friend, but I've only dipped my toe into the realms of international trade.  I have a basic understanding of it through my international economics courses, and the international business courses that I was required to take to fulfill my MGMT requirements - but anything below the surface is over my head (whoa, headie statement).

Although I have read "The World is Flat" - which was a pretty good read about globalization and its role in today's society. 

I have a meeting with the director of my graduate program tomorrow (well, if he's in his office when I stop by).  I'll be sure to ask him while I'm there.  He's a macroeconometrician, not much of an international trade specialist - but he might be able to point us in the right direction.
