Succinctly describing the main shifts in business economics and the opportunities and threats the digital world presents, 'Strategic Management of e-Business' is the most comprehensive strategic guide to success in the online world this side of the Millennium. Business Leaders, Economists, MBA students and E-Commerce Consultants alike should all read this book.'' —Peter Spark, CEO, Ecsponent''As an e-business strategist in an interactive consultancy I am very aware that most books on the subject of e-business either make the error of being too simplistic or get buried in a narrow topic or specific technology. Steve Chen's book is the first I've seen that succeeds in providing a comprehensive coverage of the whole field whilst introducing enough of the technologies and challenges so that readers who get involved in e-business initiatives appreciate what is really involved. Additionally, Dr Chen has selected for us the most insightful pieces of current research and theory to achieve a balance of the pragmatic and the intellectually rigorous, making this a unique asset in understanding this fast changing and critically important field of contemporary business'' —Alan Warr, e-Business Strategy Consultant, Rubus''A timely textbook clearly setting out which management and business theories are fundamentally changed by developments in e-commerce. A clear and highly relevant textbook for all academics in business schools today.'' —Chong Ju Choi, Cambridge University
