Instead, it offers a smartly organized framework for getting the job done with speed and efficiency...Drawing on the experiences and challenges faced by companies who have succeeded in global expansion, Winget and Renner maintain a fat-free, highly practical emphasis throughout, offering a refined, expanded, updated version of the process laid out in 1991's Fast-Track Exporting."
