Exploring Corporate Strategy: Text & Cases (8th Edition) ReviewOk, so my initial motivation for buying this book was the fact that my business school listed it as mandatory on the syllabus. After having emptied my pockets, feeling the stinging sensation of being ripped off crawling up my spine, I sat down to read this behemoth. Though undoubtedly clearly written, that is of little help when it's also coma inducing. For the sake of trying to be unbiased, I will give the authors credit for extensively covering pretty much everything you need to know about corporate strategy. Thus, I am led to conclude that this book might serve its purpose as a reference for the strategy-interested student or manager (I am neither), rather than as a book you would sit down and read. For those majoring in strategy, it might come in handy, for all others however; stay clear! If you're looking to get a solid grasp of strategy, I would recommend the book ‘Strategic Management' by Saloner, Shepard and Podolny (all from Stanford), supplemented with the original writings of Porter and the Barney (the resource-based view). It's [Strategic Management] one third the size of this book, much cheaper and a lot more interesting to read, even for someone not really into strategy (I fall into this latter category). The Saloner reading is undoubtedly more suitable for managers also, as its focus is on the implementation of strategy, and the strategy process.To conclude, I want my $130 back!
