Both academia and the real world are showing a vastly increased
interest in international logistics. Although this book covers the
entire topic, it may not contain sufficient detail to answer all
questions. The topic-and the challenge is much larger than any
single book can cover! A number of people helped us, and their
assistance should be recognized. They include Robert L. Argentieri,
Eunice Coleman, Patricia J. Daugherty, Robert Derbin, Robert
Hannus, Ken Knox, Douglas Long, Eugene L. Magad, Dale S. Rogers,
Robert Rouse, John Silvey, and Clyde Kenneth Walter. This book is
designed for both the business world and the classroom. A separate
Instructor's Manual has been prepared and may be requested on
school letterhead from Chapman & Hall. International Logistics
1 Introduction This book is about international logistics and the
international logistics system. International means that it will
deal with transactions involving indi viduals or firms in more than
one nation. Logistics means the organized movement of goods, ser
vices, and, sometimes, people. Logistics was originally a military
term. For exam ple, in author Tom Clancy's novel, Red Storm Rising,
Russian General Alekseyev thought to himself about a battlefield
situation: "The tactics ... no, amateurs dis cuss tactics.
Professional soldiers study logistics. ,,1 When one speaks of the
intema tionallogistics system, he means that huge array of
carriers, forwarders, bankers, traders, and so on that facilitate
international transactions, trades, and movements of goods and
services. Communications are important, and a logistics system in
cludes whatever communication capability it needs.
