It is a wonderful blend of cutting-edge academic rigor and real world applicability that provides ... Read morestudents and practitioners with the tools necessary to analyze the global financial system." - Dr. Paul Kutasovic, Professor of Economics and Finance, New York Institute of Technology, USA "This book offers an excellent roadmap to the topics of exchange rates and international financial transactions. It outlines the fundamental exchange rate theories and provides numerous figures and algebraic expressions to illustrate these theories. Furthermore, it does an excellent job in presenting the various ways in which multinational corporations finance their operations and discussing the basic corporate governance principles and models." - Iordanis Petsas, Associate Professor of Economics and Department Chair, Department of Economics and Finance, University of Scranton, USA "High marks all around [for] bringing clarity to a complex subject that is generally misunderstood and receives less curriculum exposure than it deserves. . . . [International Financial Transactions and Exchange Rates] is a valuable contribution to the existing body of knowledge because it not only provides some of the underlying history of the market as a general perspective for the reader, but discusses important contemporary topics and their not so obvious inter-relationships, in sufficient detail as to make more insightful FX analysis and trade craft possible after one reading." - Robert S.
