Fundamentals of International Business is the fourth edition of International Business by Dr Sumati Varma. The content of the book has been revised and mapped to the latest syllabus by the UGC under the CBCS system. The book captures the core essence of international business, with focus on the plethora of issues related to the functioning of transnational corporations (TNCs), within its geographical proximity and then moving on to more advanced modes of foreign market entry. The language and flow of content in the book enable students to understand and interpret the complexities of the subject including latest developments like BREXIT and the fluctuations in the BOLIVAR. The book reaches out to its young internet savvy audience through a variety of pedagogical features which include online videos and related exercises. It also encourages students to experience international business in action outside the confines of their class room and to explore the intricacies of cross cultural management through the use of case analysis and simulation.
