We used this textbook in my strategy class. It is a good read, I loved the case studies.
Rating: 5 / 5
The concepts are well illustrated with tables and charts. Though I find the case studies a bit outdated, the strategies discussed along with it provides a clear picture on how the industry is structured and different management style. The reading is excellent and not fill with nonsense like other textbooks.

“Strategy and the Business Landscape” is a superb guide to the current field of strategic management, illustrated by recent and well-researched case studies.
The brilliant structure and convincing presentation of state of the art literature is to the point and remains, to my mind, unmatched. Ghemawat’s work has helped me tremendously to develop a more complete picture of the ever-evolving field of strategic management.
At the same time, deficits are revealed and many original thoughts are introduced. This is what gives this textbook an inspiring and very valuable quality.
