THE ASIA & JAPAN BUSINESS INFORMATION SOURCEBOOK

If you do business in the Asia-Pacific region, or you're thinking about breaking into that booming market, this is one resource you absolutely don't want to be without. A concise guide to approximately 1,000 vital business information sources, this amazing sourcebook can save you countless hours of frustrating research and who knows how many lost opportunities.

Here's how it works: The Asia & Japan Business Information Sourcebook lists a vast array of sources, including books, journals, periodicals, references, directories, databases, official reports, and more. Each source has been carefully researched and evaluated by Asia-Pacific business expert, Christopher Engholm. Each listing includes an analysis of the source, profiles of who it is best suited for—consultants, marketers, investors, risk analysts, software developers, etc.—and pricing and ordering information.

To further facilitate your research, this ready reference is organized by region. Each section begins with an overview of regional economic conditions and recent trade and investment trends. And, within each section, sources are grouped by information categories, such as "Finance," or "Economy."

Let's say you're interested in designing databases for the Japanese market. You'd simply go to the "Japan" section, and check under the category "Company Directories" where you'd find your first important lead: Database Japan, an annual publication put out by the Database Promotion Center of Japan. Couldn't be simpler!

In the Information Age, facts are the fuel that drive business. The first and only concise guide to Asia-Pacific business information sources, this powerhouse puts you in touch with all the vital data you need to shoot for the stars.
