Federica Ricceri elevates knowledge management from a functional specialty to its rightful place as a strategic determinant of enterprise value and competitive advantage. In Intellectual Capital and Knowledge Management she provides a cogent and articulate linkage between the 'why' and the 'how' of effectively identifying, measuring and then managing intellectual capital. This is essential reading for investors, managers, policy-makers and anyone else with a stake in the global, service-oriented, intangibles-driven economy of the 21st Century.
