5.0 out of 5 stars Sadly, a "6 stars" rating isn't available..., 11 Jul 2003
By Konstantinos Nakos (Athens, Greece) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, I have read many books on strategy and organization but none has been so thorough, exciting and intuitive as this! Insisting on "the need for economic principles", the authors explore a considerable number of topics in industry evolution and firm dynamics in a very consistent, analytic and understandable manner. In contrast to most books adopting a purely qualitative analysis that disorients most serious strategy readers, this book provides a thorough quantitative arsenal for analyzing effectively and consistently almost every possible business situation... In brief: If you think business is a game, then this book is definitely its Manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE MBA book on "economical" Strategy, 30 Jan 2000
By Franco Arda (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Excellent book! The book covers (all) the aspects of Microeconomics/Strategy in a fantastic and very readable manner. Ok, there's quantitative stuff, but kept down to a minimum. Personally, one of the view "must buy" text books in strategic management.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book which combines Economics and Strategy, 15 Jul 2004
This review is from: Economics of Strategy (Hardcover)
Truely outstanding book. Comprehensive coverage of the economic reasoning behind strategic decisions. Shame most consulting firms may have never heard of this. If there is only one book in your life you want to read about strategy and economics then this is it.
