The Blackwell Handbook of Strategic Management Reviews

This Handbook is a wonderful collection of articles from the top scholars in the strategy field. It summarises the latest academic thinking on a number of issues that are central to strategy and identifies the questions that will pre-occupy strategy research for the next decade. This is must reading for every serious scholar in strategic management and a requirement for every PhD program in the field. Constantinos Markides, LBS Hitt, Freeman and Harrison have put together a great Handbook of Strategic Management. The scope and depth of its 25 chapters show how much the field has evolved during the last twenty years. The material is organized in a logical and easily accessible way with lots of references for those who want to further explore a subject. This Handbook will age well on the shelves of students and teachers, scholars, and intellectually curious practitioners. Robert Burgelman, Stanford University At long last, this handbook provides a comprehensive reference text for theory and empirical research in strategic management. The scope and thoroughness of the contributions are exceptional. The handbook should be required reading for all Ph.D students in strategic management. And it will be my first stop for a tour of the literature on any topic in strategic management. Constance E Helfat, Dartmouth University
