This book provides an excellent overview of intercultural management. It not only covers the major frameworks one would expect, but also broadens the discussion to less-commonly covered disciplines, such as geography, economic and political systems, and biology. In addition, it has a strong research focus, providing research-based critiques of frameworks and describing challenges of conducting intercultural research. The historical lens is unusual and insightful, and the inclusion of recent research and concepts in intercultural management makes the text timely. Finally, there are several practical examples drawing from many cultures and countries across the world, which are interesting and successfully illustrate concepts from the text. With Intercultural Management, students will gain an understanding of intercultural management concepts, recognize its complexity, and find themselves reflecting on ideas. In brief, the broad interdisciplinary approach, strong research-orientation, historical perspective, inclusion of recent topics, and use of several diverse examples make this a well-rounded, thoughtful, and relevant intercultural management text that will spur student learning.
