Reviews

'. . . this is an excellent collection, providing a comprehensive and well-structured cross-section of what is undoubtedly a rapidly expanding and important literature. . . . they would certainly make an excellent addition to the reference or short-term loan shelves of any library, and will be used by research students and scholars from a wide variety of disciplines.'
*Neil M. Coe, Progress in Development Studies*

'The strength of the book is that it provides diverse perspectives on developing-country TNCs from different disciplines, including business history, development studies, geography, political science, and regional studies. It also covers not only Asian TNCs, but others in Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, so that the reader has a shortcut to knowledge on developing-country TNCs from this collection. The book's major contribution lies in providing fresh insights into the social and economic origins of international business and production.'
*Yong-Sook Lee, Economic Geography*
