Pressestimmen

“The book contains a mix of overview, quantitative and qualitative, case-study chapters, which makes it more comprehensive than other books written on similar themes. … The emphasis on Chinese, Brazilian and Indian investment on the continent, which the book discusses in detail, is timely and important. … This book is a unique contribution to the literature on international business in Africa and consequently deserves to be widely read.” (Pádraig Carmody, South African Journal of International Affairs, Vol. 23 (2), 2016)
