International Logistics: The Management of International Trade Operations, 6/e (Paperback)

The sixth edition includes many changes, the most obvious being that there are four additional chapters: terminal operations, transportation of dangerous goods, transportation of refrigerated goods, and cross-border trade. These chapters were added because several faculty members had requested that they be added. I hope that they meet their expectations. For the first time, there are two chapters of the fifth edition that were eliminated-temporarily. These chapters covered quality management and inventory management, and were better suited for an international-supply-chain management textbook. This textbook is in preparation, and will be published in the summer of 2022. For those faculty members who would like to include these chapters in a course in which they have adopted the sixth edition of International Logistics, both of these chapters are downloadable, at no charge, from the publisher's website. 

As with previous editions, the remainder of the text has been completely updated, with new tables, new examples, and new photographs.
