Written by a world-renowned author team, Global Management is an international management text for undergraduates. It covers both strategy and the human resource function in a global context and has the most comprehensive list of references available in an international management text.

Each chapter includes:

* a series of learning objectives and key discussion topics

* discussion questions which require students to conduct outside research

* classroom tested exercises which are designed to and relate to promote flexible learning.

To aid student learning, long and short cases are included at the end of the book. A comprehensive instructor's manual which references the cases to the different sections of the text is available free of charge to adopters.
