Business Models
by Allan Afuah
Business Models: A Strategic Management Approach by Allan Afuah represents a new kind of book. Business models are about making money and most firms are in business to make money (a profit). It is therefore no surprise that the phrase "business model" is increasingly finding its way into CEO speech after speech and in business school functional areas from accounting to finance to marketing to strategy. Because strategic management is inherently integrative in nature and increasingly more focused on firm performance, strategy textbooks have come closest to addressing the subject of business models, but only implicitly and partially so.
Modern Competitive Strategy
by Gordon Walker
Modern Competitive Strategy, by Gordon Walker, provides a highly readable, broad synthesis of the theory and empirics of the strategy field and organizes this material pedagogically for a core strategy course. The approach is eclectic, reflecting the diversity of the discipline. The book draws on studies in industrial and institutional economics, economic and organizational sociology, mainstream strategy, and finance and marketing when appropriate. Both single business and multi-business topics are covered. Many short cases and company examples are used to illustrate the concepts. The material is appropriate for either a full semester course or a single module in MBA programs, advanced undergraduate courses, EMBA and executive education classes.
