This book is by far the most comprehensive and practical look at entering international trade I've found. When seeking to educate yourself in a particular subject, many books discuss What you need to do, few actually delineate How to accomplish your goals. Mr. Foley's book presents a definitive real-world and clear picture to help individuals and growing companies enter the global marketplace. Upon seeking to develop an export trading company, I have found this book a vital companion in my quest, and the reason why I have the CGBP (Certified Global Business Professional) credential today. 5 stars is not enough!

Global Trade is a complex world. Understanding it is not easy and needs practice. James Foley has done an outstanding job in detailing in simple language what we need to know to thoroughly understand the nature of Global Business! I have seldom read a book that is so well written on the topic and I believe he has done a tremendous service to the International Community!

Having been an educator in Global Trade for the past almost two years, I feel that this book is indeed the genuine article for anyone who wants a well rounded knowledge about several aspects of our complex Global Business World!

Bravo, James! You are a benchmark for future authors on the subject!

I have read several books on the export industry and this is by far the very best. In fact, it is actually the most enjoyable text book I have ever read---and I have read a lot. It is organized in a logical and progressive method, the writing style is clear and engaging, it breaks down complicated issues into bite-size paragraphs, it is chock full of great examples and the author includes real-life export industry illustrations from a personal standpoint. At also includes some humor, which is rare for a text book.

I received the textbook on time and it was in perfect condition as described online.

I recently took a business class at a top university in Los Angeles. I found this book to really help with the class and with my ideas for expanding a small business overseas. I'm sending this book to some college student friends in Business who will really benefit by using this book. I liked the way Foley made use of the Internet.

the book is not in "good" condition--it is very worn out and has highlighting on every page. Other than that it was a smooth transaction.
