Recenzii

The author has a clear, concise view of the changes occurring in the business-knowledge landscape and provides insight into how companies are about to be transformed. If you want to get on top of this trend, then this guide is as useful for business people as it is for those simply wondering what the future workplace holds.
Too many writers glibly use terms like knowledge economy or knowlege revolution. This book is refreshingly different. This is a well-structured and clearly written book. It avoids both punditry and pedantry. Knowledge capitalism's intended readership includes firm owners and managers interested in the strategic implications of the knowledge economy. They would be well advised to reflect on Burton-Jones's message.
his contribution is to put today's instability into perspective - to explain the forces driving change, chart workplace developments from the perspective of different stakeholders, and propose how people and organizations can be beneficiaries rather than victims.
Review from previous edition This is an excellent book that will appeal to the business world as much as the academic. Burton-Jones is to be congratulated on this deft handling of a considerable amount of complex material, resulting in a very readable volume.
