 Best help for international business law practitioners August 7, 2001
Juan L. Fuentes (Guatemala, Guatemala)
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the best book I've ever read about international business law. It is a very good guide to all issues concerning international law since the choice of a applicable law for a contract passing through contract contents, labor and taxes international legislation, ethics and finishing with the very new cyber law. This is a book to be read for specialists in both international law and international business, but also for practitioners of international trade. We have adodpted this book in our course of International Business Law at Universidad del Istmo in Guatemala. The best book I have consulted in the field.
Globalization and need to know International Law August 25, 2001
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is essentially important for every business person dealing in international arena and every student seeking careers in multinational businesses. The author covers almost all aspects of governing laws related to international trade. My personal statement would be that this book is not to just read but to use it in everyday's practices as a desk reference.

 High School Text Book-Style Garbage December 3, 2009

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a law student at a top 14 school. This is one of the worst books I've encountered in my law school career, riddled with error and ambiguity. At its best it merely summarizes statutory law. At its worst it's wordy, unclear, and treats thorny issues with a swipe of the hand.
Luckily, though, the book does provide pictures and shaded maps, for those law students who don't know where Europe is located. (See pg. 400). That's about the level at which this book is pitched.
In sum, this book is excruciating to have to work with.
Ignorant Authors September 13, 2009
J. Balian
These guys got their Ph.D.'s but lack basic knowledge in world history! They listed Armenia among the Islamic nations of the world, which is extremely IGNORANT to say the least...
FYI, Armenia has been Christian since 301 A.D.!
Could we expect a correction, let alone apologies?....
