Product Description

International Financial Management combines the fundamental concepts of international finance with solid practical applications. This combination has made it the book of choice at a variety of institutions, including top business schools such as Wharton, Stanford, Northwestern, and INSEAD. Neither superficial nor overly theoretical, Eun and Resnick's approach offers a conceptually solid, yet still relevant, treatment of international financial topics that puts students on the right track to becoming effective global financial managers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Step-by-step guide from the master, March 9, 2002

By	Sunanda Dutta "kolikata" (Hoboken, NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: International Financial Management (Hardcover)

This book set me up very nicely for a career in forex markets. Possibly the gentlest introduction to international finance, the book does not waste any time with implementation of the ideas, instead provides you with the requisite knowledge, and illustrative examples. I had the fortune of being taught the subject by the author (Dr. Eun), and so the book was fully utilized. However, other teachers would also find the book an ideal companion to course notes. In fact, the book is so well written, it seems like a tutorial. You cannot go wrong if you are using it for international finance courses. The book will also help you with preparation for the CFA charter examinations.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent textbook on international finance, November 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: International Financial Management (Hardcover)

This book has three major strengths compared to other textbooks in this field. #1: It is soundly based on FINANCE theories. Most other textbooks on international finance have more of an "international BUSINESS" taste. #2: It is more analytical than most others. #3: It is comprehensive yet very concise. This is a must-read in the field of international finance. It is particularly suitable for senior-level finance undergraduate and MBA students as well as finance professionals with an interest in investments.
