3.0 out of 5 stars interesting read though limted in scope, 4 Sep 2006
By Darragh J. Delany "djdelany" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I enjoyed reading this over the course of a recent holiday. The book does tend to jump around the timeline a bit and can be a little repetitive however it does deal well with the subject which is the relationship between the Coca-Cola Company and the bottlers. If one is looking for a history of the Coke brand with emphasis on a full history, the brand marketing and the sociology of Coke in American life then this is not the book for you. Instead it deals with the development of the distribution system, the key personalities of the 80s and 90s, stockmarket relations and the collapse of an overleveraged system.

2.0 out of 5 stars New Coke, 20 Jun 2005
By James (London) - See all my reviews
This book left me disappointed as it failed to do justice to what is a great topic - Coke. Sloppily edited, there are frequent repetitions of information in the space of a few paragraphs and even in the same one. Slightly lightweight in tone much of the book is devoted to the relationship between Coca Cola Co. and its bottlers but little on its advertising or other areas. One is left with a sense of unfulfillment - not the Real Thing.

2.0 out of 5 stars POP: A Bubble Burst, 16 Dec 2005
The bubble of my expectations was burst when I realised that this was neither a useful insight into a corporate history nor an interesting chronology of the main characters. Instead it was repetitive and dull and once the New Coke fiasco was passed, there was little to prod the reader into continuing. The Truth is this book lacks Power!

4.0 out of 5 stars Thought Provoking
Unlike so many of books about the mega corporations, this one focuses less on its history, and more on some of the disputes that occurred which prevented growth. Read more
