I had to read this for one of my classes

This is seriously the most boring textbook I have ever read...

usually I am drawn into finance and would read all textbooks that were designed for school

but this book... it's just so boring... I have to put it down so many times and now i am bored to death ...

UGH I just can't... sorry

this book focus on decision making in an International context. Analytical techniques help translate the often vague rules of thumb used by international financial executives into specific decision criteria.

Perhaps a good book to get the insight of International Payments, FOREX, Risks Management and Capital Management. I strongly recommend this book for the people from banking& finance fraternity.
