This much-needed book fills an important gap in postgraduate teaching resources. It stands out for its practical classroom utility and focus on entrepreneurial growth. It is rich with contemporary case studies, and provides numerous frameworks which connect academic theory to real-world action. As educators of the next generation of global business leaders, we have an imperative to provide a global perspective and underline the importance of solving the challenges the world faces and advancing humanity for all. Dr Hazzan and his colleagues have provided an important contribution to this effort.

This book incorporates a thoughtful, sound, and scholarly exploration of how culture, tradition, and belief shape business practices across emerging markets. Leading with recognition of indigenous language and traditions, it gives strong attention to property rights and the cultural and ethical dimensions of development. Hazzan, Amlani, and Davis include many references to Nigeria as a case study to interrogate both the promise and complexity of global finance and sustainability. By addressing traditional land tenure systems, adverse possession, and the powerful role of religion in shaping organizational behavior, it invites scholars and the general public to reconsider the ethics of international business and the cost of growth. The text is brilliantly written and meticulously researched, making it a particularly noteworthy and timely contribution to the scholarship and evolving discourse on international development.
