                      As a psychology major, I found this book to be very helpful to me not only personally but academically as it corolated with what I am studying. It changes the way you see yourself and helps a person deal with situations from the pesky waitress to your most loved one.

                      Highly recomended! Enjoy reading

                      Book Description

                      There is a strong awareness that the new economy has arrived, and that firms and management need to focus on a plethora of new issues at present only dimly perceived. The astute management of technology can advance not only the fortunes of the innovators, but also of society at large. In this book David Teece considers how firms can exploit technological innovation, protecting their intellectual capital, while staying ahead of the competition. He provides frameworks as well as practical advice, looking in particular at the organization structures most likely to support innovation, and how managerial decisions and strategy affect the division of the gains. This will be essential reading for academics, maangers, and students alike who want to keep abreast of contemporary strategic challenges.

                      5 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended!.......2001-09-20

                      In his preface, author David J. Teece promises a theoretical framework for understanding intellectual property and practical advice about managing it. Theory ultimately prevails in this book, but valuable nuggets of managerial guidance await any entrepreneur willing to dig for them. As a professor and as the presenter of Oxford's Clarendon Lecture in Management Studies, from which this book is drawn, Teece naturally tends toward abstract thinking. Some of the territory has been traveled before (i.e. the message that bureaucratic, hierarchical organizations tend to stifle innovation) but Teece adds a lot of intriguing material. We [...] believe analytically minded academics, entrepreneurs and executives will find Teece's volume illuminating, most notably his educated perspective on antitrust activism in the high tech arena. He concludes that government regulators should probably stick to regulating industries they understand. Well, if they want to understand intellectual property, they should start here.

                      2 out of 5 stars Managing Intellectual Capital. What, how and by whom?.......2001-08-28

                      You are about to realize a misconception between two related but different terms: intellectual capital and intellectual property. Browsing throughout the book you will hardly find any references to intellectual capital, including a brief definition! Thus you should not be surprised by not finding any reference to intellectual capital in the Index. One would expect some heated discussion over this controversial concept before being offered a framework to manage it. Forget it. Despite author's attempt to write about the promising field of IC all sections seem to converge around the intellectual property discussion. The management of intellectual capital is something else than the management of intellectual capital. The wrong audiences may than be easily caught in this trap.

                      5 out of 5 stars Provocative theoretical perspectives, some well-worn.......2001-05-26

                      This is an excellent book on the knowledge-based view of the firm. Although Teece is unsure in his preface whoether is succesfully addresses both academic audiences and managers. From an academic perspective, I can surely claim that this book is theoretically interesting. I recognized two portions of this book that draw heavily on Teece's work published previously in California Management Review (parts of Chapter 1 and all of chapter 4). What is certainly most interesting out of the 300 pages of small type is Section 2. This section provides a compelling set of arguments on the impact of market structures and governance modes on intellectual capital. Notabily missing, however, is incorporation of the knowledge-integration perspective that Grant et. al have been building for the past half decade. The case study on Pilkinton Glass is also well worn, and Teece clearly acknowledges that. Information technologists should not hold thier breath because this work seems to take a rather passive stand on the role of IT in mobilizing intellectual assets. The references at the end provide an impressive array of literature in economics that Teece draws on. The readibility and plausibility of Teece's arguments should come as no surprise to anyone who has read Teece's earlier scholarly work. Overall, I'd say that this was worth the thirty five dollars.

                            Bear Kamoroff, CPA, is the author of the phenomenally successful Small Time Operator : How to Start Your Own Business, Keep Your Books, Pay Your Taxes, and Stay Out of Trouble. During the past 30+ years, it has been updated and revised 25 times!

He explains in detail both business and accounting as they apply to the Internet. He shows you how to start your Internet business, discusses e-commerce, describes the law you must know, covers intellectual property, gets into international commerce and discusses your home business.

                            Bernard (Bear) Kamoroff is a CPA, University of California business instructor and author of seven books on business.

                            Do not go into e-commerce with out this book.

                                    Book Description

                                    Putting Social Development to Work for the Poor finds that there is a strong positive association between including social development themes and project success. The Bank's social development resources are deployed in ways that are not optimally supportive of its social development goals, however. The study found that the Bank's mission and policy priorities related to social development receive uneven treatment across Regions, and gaps in skills and M&E lead to uneven treatment within countries.

                                    To improve development outcomes, the Bank needs to:

                                    1) demonstrate the value of incorporating social development themes in its work to its own staff as well as its borrowers;
                                    2) develop capacity to identify critically needed social knowledge and to facilitate its flow;
                                    3) provide staff with consistent access to essential social information to build social development into project designs and ensure that social development concerns are addressed during implementation (this will likely involve making greater use of in-country capacity);
                                    4) ensure that stated Bank or policy priorities receive adequate treatment across Regions and countries, and throughout the project cycle; and
                                    5) identify, and promote integration within, thematic combinations that improve outcomes.
