Product Description
Product Description
Managing Innovation is an established, bestselling text for MBA, MSc and advanced undergraduate courses on management of technology, innovation management and entrepreneurship. It is also used widely by managers in both the service and manufacturing sectors. Now in its fourth edition, Managing Innovation has been fully revised and updated based on extensive user feedback to incorporate the latest findings and techniques in innovation management. The authors have included a new and more explicit innovation model, which is used throughout the book and have introduced two new features – Research Notes and Views from the Front Line – to incorporate more real life case material into the book. The strong evidence–based and practical approach makes this a must–read for anyone studying or working within innovation.
An extensive website accompanies this text at www.managing–innovation.com. Readers can browse an online database of audio and video clips, as well as case study material, interactive exercises and tools for innovation, whilst lecturers can find additional support material including instructor slides and teaching guides and tips.
"Tidd and Bessant′s text has become a standard for students and practitioners of innovation. They offer a lively account on innovation management full of interesting and new examples, but one that at the same is rigorously anchored in what we have learned over the last thirty years on how to manage that ultimate business challenge of renewing products, processes, and business models. Those who want to innovate must read this book."
—Professor Arnoud De Meyer, Director, Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, UK
"Innovation matters and this book by two leaders in the field which is clear and practical as well as rigorous should be essential reading for all seeking to study or to become involved in innovation."
—Chris Voss, Professor of Operations and Technology Management, London Business School
"...comprehensive and comprehensible compendium on the management of innovation. It is very well organized and very well presented. A pedagogic tool that will work at multiple levels for those wishing to gain deeper insights into some of the most challenging and important management issues of the day."
—David J. Teece, Thomas W. Tusher Professor in Global Business, Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley, USA
"Those of us who teach in the field of Innovation Management were delighted when the first edition of this book appeared 11 years ago. The field had long been in need of such a comprehensive and integrated empirically–based work. The fact that this is now the 4th edition is clear testimony to the value of its contribution. We are deeply indebted to the authors for their dedication and diligence in providing us with this updated and expanded volume."
—Thomas J. Allen,Howard W. Johnson Professor of Management, MIT Sloan School of Management, USA

Format:Paperback
Appreciation for this book must be contextualised: it is not a short, readable business text where one or two key ideas are spun out to make an airport-shelf book with a snazzy title. Instead, it is a clear, accessible but above all *comprehensive* textbook which systematically and thoroughly addresses the "what, when, how and why" of innovating in large organisations. Unlike some academics, the authors show a keen awareness of the need to connect theory to practice and have put in commendable effort to bridge this gap, using jargon-free text, a plethora of illustrative case studies, contributions from practising businessmen and a supporting website which contains audio-visual material and comprehension self-tests, to support the concepts being explained within it. The one limitation of the text is really one of the field in general: it focuses heavily on large firms, though as the text explains, the academic research on innovation in small firms is a relatively unexplored area and hence cannot be covered to the same level of detail. Overall, this is a great text which enables the reader to gain a high level of insight into the direction, selection, exploration and exploitation of innovation within organisations.

Format:Paperback
I bought this book as an altrenative to core textbook of my university course in innovation. It is an excellent aid for my studies, built around a 4 stages framework "search, select, implement and capture innovation" that makes it easy to follow. I think it is oriented more to a managerial aspect of innovation as its title reveals, although it keeps a good balance between theoretical concepts and real life examples. What I liked most, is that is accompanied by a web site from where you can freely download many related and useful tools!!

A good one!
It is a well written textbook (and the previous editions as well). One can trace back to the early thinking and writings of Arrow, Schumpeter, Nelson, Freeman and Pavitt. Read more

Much too much text
The conclusions the book makes are fine, but there is just way too much text trying to explain it. Some chapters are 50 pages long, but they could have said it in 5 pages.

An essential read for MBA innovation modules
Found this book interesting and informative. Text is laid out well for ease of reading. Well worth the money.
