It is a balanced package also in terms of providing cases, examples, and information from various parts of the world, and very usefully provides an abundance of valuable sources of further information.' Hannu Seristö, Aalto University

It also covers emerging key topics such as those of data knowledge, digital contributions, and virtual thinking, amongst others.

'The Czinkota, Ronkainen, and Gupta International Business text (ninth edition) is a classic in this field. It provides the information and examples needed to understand the importance of international business. The new edition is also helpful in covering very contemporary issues, such as protectionism and the worries over increased globalization. This excellent text continues to be a standard for students and instructors alike.' David Ahlstrom, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
'This book, now in its ninth edition, benefits from the vast knowledge and academic experience of three known IB scholars. It is an up-to-date coverage of pertinent IB topics, contained in fifteen chapters and a collection of cases representing a mix of scenarios, industries, and contexts. The authors have thoughtfully included chapters on emerging markets, international supply chain, sustainability, digital IB, and the future of IB. These non-traditional chapters play increasingly important roles in IB research and education. In particular, sustainability is expected to be an ongoing theme in IB. The many examples and current cases provide interesting angles, and case studies provide a rich basis for class discussions.' Saeed Samiee, University of Tulsa
