This review is from: Case Studies in International Entrepreneurship: Managing and Financing Ventures in the Global Economy (Hardcover)

I can't believe the nerve of the publisher charging what they do for material written by grad students. To add insult to injury, they didn't even bother re-setting the typography or images. Tables are disconnected from the text and the graphics are horrible.

I had to buy this book for an entrepreneurship class. Do not buy this book as a reference for Finance or Entrepreneurship. It is a bound collection of student papers. The graphics are horrible, usually badly enlarged clip art or newspaper-quality pictures. It is very difficult to find any information in the book (like relevant cases) because there is no index and the table of contents is after 12 pages of advertisment and boasting by the "author".

If your professor requires this book, well, I'm sorry. If you're looking for a reference book, you'd be better off picking one at random.
