520 _a"What is international business? How much risk is involved in trading across borders? Why is corporate social responsibility important? What impact has the credit crunch of 2008 had on international business? How does a coffee bean grown in Brazil become an espresso sold in Europe? In today's increasingly connected world, international business plays an integral role in day-to-day life. This introductory textbook offers a refreshingly critical approach to international business, examining both good and bad practice and encouraging readers to question and challenge classic assumptions and theories. Drawing on a range of vivid case examples and insights from small businesses to large multinational companies, readers are provided with a realistic depiction of the challenges and opportunities international business can present. Importantly, this book adopts a truly international approach and includes an abundance of examples from countries across the globe, particularly Brazil, Russia, India and China.
