Question:
John Wiley & Sons publishes academic textbooks over which it generally owns the American copyright. While he was studying in the United States, Kirtsaeng asked his friends and family in Thailand to buy copies of foreign edition English-language textbooks at Thai book shops, where they sold at low prices, and mail them to him in the United States.

Wiley claims that Kirtsaeng’s unauthorized importation and resale of the books amounted to an infringement of Wiley’s exclusive rights under copyright law. Is Wiley correct? Explain.
