Rezensionen

'For understanding management differences across cultures, there is no substitute for personal international experience. Academic literature on the subject too often resembles mediaeval scholastic disputes. The editors and authors of the present book have set themselves to inform future practitioners, for which they should be complimented.' - Geert Hofstede, Professor Emeritus, Maastricht University, The Netherlands

'This is a welcome and well integrated textbook on comparative international management, which is very much needed for degrees and courses in international business. It provides balanced arguments and evidence about the importance of universalistic and particularistic approaches to management across societal boundaries and presents a systematic framework for integrating the considerable literature on comparative management, including studies of organisations in Asia and Africa. It will be particularly useful for students on advanced undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.' - Richard Whitley, Professor of Organizational Sociology, Manchester Business School, University of Manchester, UK
