Summary

This book has always included the most recent research in strategy in a way that students can understand and apply to business cases and problems. In addition, it offers more coverage of strategy implementation than most other texts, which many instructors think is critical if students are to understand the how and not just the what and why. The coverage of Michael Porter's classic 5-forces model is clearer and more detailed than in other texts, according to reviewers. With this edition the market leader looks better than ever before, offering a new 4-colour design, improved writing style and two new chapters on global and e-commerce strategy.
