Reviews for International Finance

An excellent textbook covering different topics in international finance, from basics to more advanced - making it very versatile. Unlike other textbooks in international finance which are geared towards international financial management or international economics, this is possibly the best international finance book I have come across and I have been waiting for quite a few years now for an updated version -- Gabriella Legrenzi, Senior Lecturer, Keele University * Draft manuscript review * The content covered is excellent and in many aspects superior to the mainstream textbooks. The structure is very convenient and allows the lecturer to scale the content coverage due t the nature of Part 3, which I find a most valuable addition. -- Alexandre Dmitriev, Senior Lecturer, University of Auckland * Draft manuscript review * It is very good. It explains concepts well. I especially like that it is good on giving examples and surveying relevant empirical literature. -- Tom Willett, Professor, Claremont Graduate College, USA * Draft manuscript review * I will continue to use this book as the sole textbook for my undergraduate module dealing with international finance. I believe that no further changes are needed. I enjoyed a lot reading this new version of the book! -- Athanasios Triantafyllou, Lecturer, University of Essex * Draft manuscript review *
