- Seev Hirsch, International Business Review,
'Multinational Enterprises and the Global Economy<i> has become a classic in international business. . . Yet , the book's second edition is even better than the first, in part because of Professor Dunning's wise decision to choose Dr Lundan as his co-author and to draw upon her deep knowledge of various strands of research on business-government relations and the societal effects of firm behaviour. . . In addition to being a remarkably useful reference book, </i>Multinational Enterprises and the Global Economy<i> is the first book any IB doctoral student should read to understand the significance and richness of IB scholarship as it has developed over the past 50 years.'</i>
- Alain Verbeke, Journal of International Business Studies,
<i>'The second edition of </i>Multinational Enterprises and the Global Economy<i> provides unparalleled coverage not only of the literature relevant to IB research but also of the evolution of IB in the world economy. Dunning and Lundan offer powerful insights into the societal effects of MNEs and the role of business-government relations in the IB context.</i>
- Journal of International Business Studies,
<i>'This wonderful book offers the definitive synthesis of the modern literature on the economic aspects of international business. It is encyclopedic yet full of incisive insights. It is a creative masterpiece which unbundles the DNA of the multinational enterprise and shows how it is the cornerstone of the field of international business.'</i>
