What People are Saying About This

Ashok Sadhwani

International Trade has always been a hands-on subject and the few books that are out there do not address anywhere near the width and depth that Export-Import Theory, Practices and Procedures, Second Edition, does. . . . Each of the 20 chapters in this book closes with a great summary. The student here is also provided with enough references, case studies and international perspectives on the subject matter covered within the chapter. There are even review questions for further self-study. THE CHAPTERS ON IMPORT REGULATIONS IS ESPECIALLY VALUABLE to the student of international trade and the section on export licensing and regulations of the Commerce Department is a boon to any new or seasoned export manager. The useful presentation of typical import and export transactions as well as samples of distributor agreements and business plans put this book WAY ABOVE ANY OTHER IN ITS CLASS.

Nicolas Papadopoulos

COVERS A NUMBER OF SIGNIFICANT GAPS THAT ARE NOT ADDRESSED ELSEWHERE. . . . By focusing specifically on trade rather than other forms of international expansion, DR. SEYOUM HAS ACHIEVED THE NEAR-IMPOSSIBLE—in-depth and thorough coverage of both the theory and the practice of exporting, and significantly broader coverage of importing than is the norm, thus offering the most complete coverage of all facets of trade that I have seen. . . . EXCELS BY INTEGRATING THEORY WITH PRACTICE AND EXPORTS WITH IMPORTS. . . . The fact that this book starts with 'A Brief History of International Trade' and concludes, among others, with a 'Sample Distributorship Agreement', speaks to the singular achievement of this book: true cover-to-cover, and top-to-bottom, coverage of all relevant issues in exporting and importing.
