Simply the best on international investing.
This is a sophisticated book tht teach you how to think and how to implement.
Designed for an investment professional. But great pedagogy and not US-centric.

This review is from: International Investments (4th Edition) (Hardcover)

Although all facts in international investments is covered, the author did not add his comments or insight.

No further knowledge gained except knowing the facts. I wish I could find a more interesting and useful book on this topic.
