Taylor Professor of Entrepreneurial Studies, The Wharton School of Management. * For those struggling to understand how knowledge-based organizations can develop and exploit their distinctive competences, Boisot's book provides profound insights and challenges. * Dr Keith Blois, Templeton College, University of Oxford * ...this is for the scientist who want to impress managers. It's a serious book. * Harold Thimbleby. New Scientist * In his new book Boisot... addresses and explores new issues that are relevant from a managerial point of view. Without any doubt Boisot's I-space theory is one of the most comprehensive theories in the management literature. * Sage Publications * ...his book represents an important step towards the development of a knowledge-based theory of the firm. It is likely to be of use to academics, as well as the growing clan of practitioners in firms who are interested in management and organisational theory. * Jane Millar, Times Higher Education Supplement * If you accept that knowledge and the ability to use it is a key competitive resource, you must read this book. If you do not accept this, then also read it to discover where you are wrong before it is too late! * John Child, Guinness Professor of Management Studies, University of Cambridge *
