Instruct: Classify Amazon reviews into positive or negative sentiment
Query: Strewn with errors and outdated information

The 5th edition, while published in 2009, still has problems referring to trades in 1987 in the current tense and tables from 1990 IMF reports. They discuss Deutschmark and Dutch guilder transactions as if they still exist. They have mutual fund graphs with 1977-1986 data. The power point slides have errors that do not tie to the examples from the text. The authors need to pay closer attention to updating, or hire someone else to do it for them. For a student, a lot of information needs updating. For an international finance instructor, there are better text choices elsewhere.
