Recenzje

'Parthasarathi Banerjee provides an insightful analysis of the growth of the Indian software industry. Departing from the usual analysis of this Indian success story, the author uses the software industry to illustrate valuable links between the practice and theory of strategy. There are important lessons for all - students of the Indian software industry in particular and of business models in general.' - Soumitra Dutta, Dean of Executive Education, The Roland Berger Chaired Professor of Business and Technology, INSEAD, France

This book as an anthology of living and creative experiences is recommendable to all those working for and interested in software industry.' - Prof. Dr. Sung-Jo Park, Free University, Berlin, Germany; Seoul National University, Korea; Founder and former President of Euro Asia Management Studies Association
