Written by an experienced author team, the text offers unparalleled pedagogy including numerous cases, boxed vignettes, review / discussion questions, exercises, and generous tables, charts and exhibits. The revision adds two new opening chapters to reflect charges in world events and a more strategic focus. A new second chapter on culture and cross-cultural analysis includes cutting-edge research.
