Hi Bootstrapper,You can try International Finance by Maurice Levi.Am not aware of the level at which you want to access International Finance stuff; this book should suffice at the beginners to intermediate level.Cheers.

bootstrapper100,I am currently tutoring a class where Levi's book is the recommended text. While not as flashy as some other international finance textbooks, Levi's book explains concepts clearly and does not rely heavily on mathematics.The book is firmly based in economics theory and explains ER fluctuations using the asset approach, monetary theory and the portfolio balance approach.A word of warning however - the book is somewhat dated. It hasn't been revised in the last 10 years.As an alternative you may want to consider "International Financial Management" by Jeff Madura or "International Financial Management" by Eun and Resnick.adas
