International Business is made up of three parts. The first part looks at context and rationale and includes an introduction, theories of the international firm, international business in context, and international trade theory. Part Two looks at the external environment. It covers a number of dimensions: institutional, political, social, and economic. The third part is about managing the global factory. This includes an examination of foreign operations modes, corporate social responsibility, marketing strategies, global innovation management, financial management strategies, human resources management strategies, cross-cultural management strategies, and the strategic response.

The International Business Environment integrates global examples and a wide range of case studies to explore the challenges that organizations face globally. The first of its two parts is about the global context and looks at globalization, the global economy, and global industries. It also examines the global business environment, corporate social responsibility, and country attractiveness. The second part, Global Issues, considers the social-cultural framework before considering the technological framework. It then moves on to the political and legal environments. The financial framework is also given consideration. Finally, the ecological environment is examined.
