Strategic Management: State of the Field and Its Future promises an update on the strategic management field, and it succeeds. The book is a rich compendium of useful information about the current state of research in strategic management, and it points to promising avenues for future research. This book is a valuable resource for scholars in strategy, as we pursue research on important strategy topics and even as we prepare and update our research-informed teaching in strategy courses. It is also valuable background reading for Ph.D. students as well as for the non-strategy scholar seeking to understand what, exactly, strategic management is.
