How to write Book Précis Assignment

How to write Book Précis

Book Précis – For this assignment, you’ll write a précis on the required readings (book and articles) used in this course. A précis is a summary and critical evaluation of scholarly works (In this case a book and at minimum three articles). It will typically take the following form:

Full bibliographic citation in Chicago of Style Manual format of the book.
First paragraph: an objective summary or abstract of the publication. This paragraph should present the information as objectively as possible. You’ll have a chance to critique the argument in the second part of your précis. You should not use the abstract published for the book. The first paragraph should contain the following information:

The overall argument that the author is making, including the author’s thesis, the logical thread of the argument, the kinds of support provided, and so forth. If the author invents or uses special terms to argue the case, mention and define them.

The context for the argument. What critics or points of view is the author attempting to refute? Where does the author’s argument fit into the larger critical discussion of the issue? Is the author attempting to overturn certain assumptions about the work, and, if so, what are those assumptions.
Second and third paragraphs: a critical analysis of the publication. In this paragraph, you’ll assess the strengths and weaknesses of the article and discuss the implications of its reasoning for future study of the work.

These questions may help you get started:

What parts of the book/articles were especially strong or insightful, and why?
In what parts of the scholarly works (if any) did the author make claims that were not supported by the evidence? Were there any flaws in the logic of the piece?

In what ways is this book useful for understanding the historical topic covered? How significant is it?

You may use more paragraphs if you need to, but you should follow this basic format.
Length: Approximately 2 typed, double-spaced pages
Late submitting will be penalized a letter grade or more.

Creation of an international business

This project is an individual paper on the creation of an international business. You should pick your own product and countries and the more relevant the concepts that you relate to the creation and operation of your business, the higher your grade. For example, assume that your company is a U.S. company acquiring blue jeans from a low cost area (possibly China, Mexico, or Panama) and wishing to sell them in Europe (possibly U.K., France, or Germany). What is your plan and activity sequence? The plan must include:

A strategy, how are you going to be competitive? (e.g., lower cost, differentiation)
A market program that includes target market, value proposition and what countries you are going to choose? Why? Criteria, etc.
A supply chain for goods, how does the company get physical products from the supplier to the customers?
A financial trail, how will the company pay for the goods (which currency), minimize financial exposure (options, forward contracts, inflation, etc.) and get profits back to the U.S. for shareholders (currency conversion)?
An information trail associated with the goods; when does the company need to do what, payments, milestones, etc.?

You are free to use real data from customs and trade databases, but that is not the main point of the exercise. Rather you must go through the thought process of doing international business and identify what problems you will encounter and what tools you may use to overcome them. You can make up some facts and numbers along the way to make your business sound real. A flow chart and/or pictures are also helpful. The paper is to be typed, approximately 10 pages in length, and include the five sections enumerated in the above bullet points.
