Very Good Comprehensive Textbook
This is a comprehensive college text on the subject of international marketing. It is excellent in that it covers all relevant subject areas in some depth. The text also offers guidelines for student development of a "country notebook" international marketing project. There are also quite a few provocative and relevant cases. The only negatives are that the writing is a bit over the heads of most undergraduates, and the country notebook lends itself toward development of a multidomestic plan rather than a global plan. I use the text to teach international marketing. I have found no other book on the subject that offers an acceptable combination of project, cases, and material to be learned in a single source.

International Marketing, Ghauri & Cateora
International Marketing, I am in complete disagreement with this system and the alleged seller of Amazon, by purchasing a book that I needed an urgent and even non receipt, I sent e-mail to the seller (sgrimley2) for 3 opportunities and I have no answer. You deducted the money from my bank the day May 28, today is June 26 and still have no reply nor my book. I want to know what happens ......
