They are much exploited, but littleexplored. In this book, Martin Kornberger setsout to rectify the ratio between exploiting andexploring through sketching out a theory of theBrand Society. Most attempts to explain the roleof brands focus on brands either as marketingand management tools (business perspective)or as symptoms of consumerism (sociologicalperspective). Brand Society combines theseperspectives to show how brands have thepower to transform both the organizations thatdevelop them and the lifestyles of theindividuals who consume them. This holisticapproach shows how brands function as amedium between producers and consumers ina way that is rapidly transforming our economyand society. That's the bottom line of the BrandSociety: brands are a new way of organizingproduction and managing consumption. Usingan array of practical case studies from a diverseset of organizations, this book provides afascinating account of the way in which brandsinfluence the lives of individuals and theorganizations they work in.ISBN: 9781107674875 328pp ` 495.002

Trade Marks andBrandsAn InterdisciplinaryCritiqueLionel Bently,Jennifer Davis &Jane C. GinsburgManagingCustomer ValueOne Stage at a TimeDilip Soman &Sara N-Marandi(World Scientific)Developments in trade marks law have calledinto question a variety of basic features, as wellas bolder extensions, of legal protection. Otherdisciplines can help us think about fundamentalissues such as: what is a trade mark? Whatdoes it do? What should be the scope of itsprotection? This volume assembles essaysexamining trade marks and brands from amultiplicity of fields: from business history,marketing, linguistics, legal history, philosophy,sociology and geography. Each chapter pairslawyers’ and non-lawyers’ perspectives, so thateach commentator addresses and critiques hisor her counterpart’s analysis. The perspectivesof non-legal fields are intended to enrich legalacademics’ and practitioners’ reflections abouttrade marks, and to expose lawyers, judges andpolicy-makers to ideas, concepts and methodsthat could prove to be of particular importancein the development of positive law.ISBN: 9780521259309 480pp ` 395.00How do you take individuals who have neverdone business with your organization and workon them till some of them eventually becomethe best possible customers that you have?How do you decide how much to spend onvarious marketing tactics? How do you thinkabout the pricing decision with a view tooptimizing the value of your customers asassets? Where do you start - what tools do youuse - what heuristics are useful in making thesedecisions? This book attempts to answerquestions such as these. The one-sentencesummary of the answer, though, is simple - holdthe individuals hands and walk them through avalue chain, one stage at a time.This book is written for an advanced student ofbusiness, as well as for the practicing manager,and presents an integrated view of themarketing function. In particular, it focuses onall the activities that a firm engages in to createand manage value, and not just the customerfacingactivities. In that sense, it links thetraditional views of customer value with thefinance, accounting, human resources,organizational behaviour, informationtechnology and operations functions. Thecontent is meant to be prescriptive - it describesa process for value creation and management,yet analytical; theoretical, yet empirically driven.It urges the reader to think about the customervalue function to be organized along activitiesthat the firm would like the customers to engagein, not activities that the firm engages in. Itpresents a framework that is not onlyconceptually driven but also has a soundmathematical basis.ISBN: 9788175967977 416pp ` 450.00Crafting StrategyEmbodied Metaphorsin PracticeLoizos Heracleous &Claus D. JacobsGame TheoryStrategic Thinkingwith Economics andBusiness ApplicationsAviad HeifetzSTRATEGIC MANAGEMENTThe rationalist approach to strategizingemphasizes analytical and convergent thinking.Without denying the importance of thisapproach, this book argues that strategistsmust learn to complement it with a morecreative approach to strategizing thatemphasizes synthetic and divergent ways ofthinking. The theoretical underpinnings of thisapproach include embodied realism,interpretivism, practice theory, theory of play,design thinking, as well as discursiveapproaches such as metaphorical analysis,narrative analysis, dialogical analysis andhermeneutics. The book includes in-depthdiscussions of these theories and shows howthey can be put into practice by presentingdetailed analyses of embodied metaphors builtby groups of agents with step-by-stepexplanations of how this process can beimplemented and facilitated. The link betweentheory and practice is further supported by theinclusion of several vignettes that describe howthis approach has been successfully employedin a number of organizations, including BASFand UNICEF.ISBN: 9781107664531 240pp ` 295.00Game theory is concerned with strategicinteraction among several decision-makers.

Stakeholders Matter challenges the basicassumptions of this model, in particulartraditional economic views on the theory of thefirm and dominant theories of strategicmanagement, and develops a newunderstanding of value creation away from pureself-interest toward mutuality. This new‘stakeholder paradigm’ is based on a networkview, whereby mutuality enhances benefits andreduces risks for the firm and its stakeholders.The understanding of mutual value creation isoperationalized according to the license tooperate, to innovate and to compete. The bookdevelops a vision for a strategy in society inwhich, rather than the invisible hand of themarket, it is the visible hands of the firm and thestakeholders that lead to an overall increase inthe welfare of society.InnovatingOrganization &ManagementNew Sources ofCompetitiveAdvantageNicolai J. Foss, TorbenPedersen, Jacob Pyndt& Majken SchultzThe search for competitive advantage servesas the basis for organizational strategy. Thisbook argues that there are four key sources ofcompetitive advantage and financial successthat have not been given the attention theydeserve. Firstly, that organizational design andmanagement processes may be strategicresources in their own right. Secondly, thatorganizational design and managementprocesses can be deployed to create newstrategic resources. Thirdly, that managershave begun to think of organizational designand management processes in a proactive wayrather than seeing them more passively asnecessary facilitators of success. Fourthly, thatthis new way of looking at organization andmanagement requires a search for new ways ofstructuring organizational design andmanagerial processes. These points are drivenhome through case studies of the Danish firmsLEGO Group, Vestas Wind Systems, Coloplast,Chr. Hansen, IC Companys and NKT Flexibles.Forthcoming 296pp TBAForthcoming 200pp TBA4

SpulberECONOMICS & FINANCEGlobalization and Competition explains whysome middle-income countries, principallythose in Asia, grow fast while others are notsuccessful. The author criticizes both old-styledevelopmentalism and the economics of theWashington Consensus. He argues instead fora ‘new developmentalism‘ or third approach thatbuilds on a national development strategy. Thisapproach differs from the neoliberal strategythat rich nations propose to emergingeconomies principally on macroeconomicgrounds. Developing countries face a keyobstacle to growth, namely, the tendency toovervaluate foreign exchange. Instead ofneutralizing it, the policy that rich countriespromote mistakenly seeks growth throughforeign savings, which causes additionalappreciation of the national currency and oftenresults in financial crises rather than genuineinvestment.ISBN: 9781107623996 264pp ` 395.00The Theory of the Firm presents a pathbreakinggeneral framework for understandingthe economics of the firm.

Foss & PeterG. KleinEntrepreneurship, long neglected byeconomists and management scholars, hasmade a dramatic comeback in the last twodecades, not only among academic economistsand management scholars, but also amongpolicymakers, educators and practitioners.Likewise, the economic theory of the firm,building on Ronald Coase’s (1937) seminalanalysis, has become an increasingly importantfield in economics and management. Despitethis resurgence, there is still little connectionbetween the entrepreneurship literature and theliterature on the firm, both in academia and inmanagement practice. This book fills this gapby proposing and developing an entrepreneurialtheory of the firm that focuses on theconnections between entrepreneurship andmanagement. Drawing on insights fromAustrian economics, it describesentrepreneurship as judgmental decision madeunder uncertainty, showing how judgment is thedriving force of the market economy and thekey to understanding firm performance andorganization.Forthcoming 270pp TBAA Textbook ofCulturalEconomicsRuth TowseWhat determines the price of a pop concert oran opera?

The RBI monitors India’smonetary and exchange rate policies, and theborrowings of the central and stategovernments. Regulation of commercialbanking is another key responsibility.This volume narrates in detail how the RBIcoped with the changes that it was required tomanage.

It is affected by capital market, blockholders, institutional investors, proxy wars,company law and capital market regulationsand many other macro-economic as well aspolitical factors. Historical evolution of corporategovernance naturally has a bearing on currentdevelopments. This book is an attempt toweave these factors together coherently.Much of the concerned literature revolvesaround the agency problem, while in developingcountries expropriation of small shareholders isthe main governance problem. However,shareholder activism is not likely to resolve theissue. Many more measures, from auditcommittees of the board, rigorous disclosures,exercise of voting rights by institutionalinvestors, strict monitoring by capital marketregulator to takeover bids are required toensure corporate accountability.ISBN: 9788175962040 173pp ` 395.00InternationalFinance AndOpen-economyMacroeconomicsTheory, History, andPolicyHendrik Van den Berg(World Scientific)This historically-based textbook on internationalfinance and open-economy macroeconomicsprovides a complete course on the theory andpolicies that shaped our international financialsystem.

Risk ManagementValue at Risk andBeyondM. A. H. DempsterThe use of derivative products in riskmanagement has spread from commodities,stocks and fixed income items, to such virtualcommodities as energy, weather andbandwidth. All this can give rise to so-calledvolatility and there has been a consequentdevelopment in formal risk managementtechniques to cover all types of risk: market,credit, liquidity, etc. One of these techniques,Value at Risk, was developed specifically tohelp manage market risk over short periods. Itssuccess led, somewhat controversially, to itstake up and extension to credit risk over longertime-scales. This extension, ultimately notsuccessful, led to the collapse of a number ofinstitutions. The present book, which wasoriginally published in 2002, by some of theleading figures in risk management, examinesthe complex issues that concern the stability ofthe global financial system by presenting a mixof theory and practice.Financial MarketBubbles andCrashesHarold L. VogelDespite the thousands of articles and themillions of times that the word ‘bubble’ has beenused in the business press, there still does notappear to be a cohesive theory or persuasiveempirical approach with which to study ‘bubble’and ‘crash’ conditions. This book presents aplausible and accessible descriptive theory andempirical approach to the analysis of suchfinancial market conditions. It advances such aframework through application of standardeconometric methods to its central idea, whichis that financial bubbles reflect urgent short siderationed demand. From this basic idea, anelasticity of variance concept is developed. It isfurther shown that a behavioral risk premiumcan probably be measured and related to thestandard equity risk premium models in a waythat is consistent with conventional theory.ISBN: 9780521263306 384pp ` 450.00ISBN: 9780521263740 290pp ` 350.00Theory of FinancialRisk andDerivative PricingFrom StatisticalPhysics to RiskManagementSecond EditionJean-Philippe Bouchaud& Marc PottersRisk control and derivative pricing have becomeof major concern to financial institutions, andthere is a real need for adequate statistical toolsto measure and anticipate the amplitude of thepotential moves of the financial markets.Summarising recent theoretical developmentsin the field, this second edition has beensubstantially expanded. Additional chaptersnow cover stochastic processes, Monte-Carlomethods, Black-Scholes theory, the theory ofthe yield curve, and Minority Game. There arediscussions on aspects of data analysis,financial products, non-linear correlations, andherding, feedback and agent based models.This book has become a classic reference forgraduate students and researchers working ineconophysics and mathematical finance, andfor quantitative analysts working on riskmanagement, derivative pricing and quantitativetrading strategies.ISBN: 9780521263368 400pp ` 575.00Business andFinancial StatisticsUsing Minitab 12and MicrosoftExcel 97John C. Lee(World Scientific)The personal computer has made statisticalanalysis easier and cheaper. Previously,statistical analysis was difficult for manyreasons. Two of the reasons were: (1) statisticalanalysis was slow and tedious becausecalculations were done by hand; (2) it wascostly because it was done on mainframes andmainframe time was expensive.This book discusses statistical analysis usingtwo personal computer software packages,Minitab 12 and Microsoft Excel 97. Minitab waschosen because it is powerful and is one of themore user-friendly statistical softwarepackages. Microsoft Excel 97 was selectedbecause it is one of the most important softwarepackages to learn and most companies useMicrosoft Excel. Excel is a software packagethat is not dedicated to statistical analysis likeMinitab, but it has many statistical features anda very powerful development environment forwriting customized statistical analysis.The book is organized in a textbook format.Each chapter discusses statistical concepts andillustrates the use of Minitab and/or Excel. Oftenit becomes necessary to write macros(programs) in order to do specific statisticalanalysis. This book prints the codes of themacros for the reader to use and study. This isvaluable because usually the difficult part ishow to write the code.What the reader will find after studying thisbook is that statistical analysis will becomemore fun because he will have more time doingstatistical analysis and make less statisticalcalculations.ISBN: 9788175967892 368pp ` 395.0012

In this book, SteveFleetwood and Anthony Hesketh take issue withthis 'scientific' approach by arguing that itspreoccupation with statistical analysis ismisplaced because it fails to take account of thecomplexities of organisations and the full rangeof issues that influence individual performance.The book is split into three parts. Part Ideconstructs research into the alleged linkbetween people and business performance byshowing that it cannot explain the associationsit alleges. Part II attributes these shortcomingsto the importation of spurious 'scientific'methods, before going on to suggest moreappropriate methods that might be used infuture. Finally, Part III explores how HRexecutives and professionals understand theirwork and shows how a critical realist stanceadds value to this understanding throughenhanced explanation.ISBN: 9780521263382 360pp ` 350.0013BuildingRespectedCompaniesRethinking BusinessLeadership and thePurpose of the FirmJordi CanalsManagementAcross CulturesChallenges andStrategiesRichard M. Steers,Carlos Sanchez-Runde& Luciara NardonThe current financial crisis has deepmacroeconomic roots, but the dominant view ofthe firm has made the crisis deeper and moredevastating. Over the past few decades,maximizing shareholder value has become themain objective of the firm. Chief executiveshave been keen on this objective because theireconomic incentives have been clearlyassociated with stock market performance.Unfortunately, this has driven many CEOs tomake terrible decisions based on short-termismand greed. In this way, the firm has become theobject of anger, criticism and cynicism. InBuilding Respected Companies, Jordi Canalsargues that we must address this problem bydeveloping companies that serve society, notjust their shareholders. This requires a newperspective of what a firm is, what the purposeof the firm in society should be and what therole of the board of directors and seniorexecutives should be.ISBN: 9781107621015 282pp ` 395.00Management practices and processesfrequently differ across national and regionalboundaries.

MeierLeveragingCorporateResponsibilityThe StakeholderRoute to MaximizingBusiness and SocialValueC. B. Bhattacharya,Sankar Sen &Daniel KorschunHow effective are public managers as they seekto influence how public organizations deliverpolicy results? How, and how much, ismanagement related to the performance ofpublic programs? What aspects of managementcan be distinguished? Can their separablecontributions to performance be estimated? Thefate of public policies in today's world lies in thehands of public organizations, which in turn areoften intertwined with others in latticed patternsof governance. Collectively, these organizationsare expected to generate performance in termsof policy outputs and outcomes. In this book,two award-winning researchers investigate theeffectiveness of management in the publicsector. Firstly, they develop a systematic theoryon how effective public managers are inshaping policy results. The rest of the book thentests this theory against a wide range ofevidence, including a data set of 1,000 publicorganizations.ISBN: 9781107606234 344pp ` 495.00The corporate social and environmentalresponsibility movement, known more generallyas corporate responsibility (CR), shows littlesign of waning. Almost all large corporationsnow run some form of corporate responsibilityprogram. Despite this widespread belief that CRcan simultaneously improve societal welfareand corporate performance, most companiesare largely in the dark when it comes tounderstanding how their stakeholders think andfeel about these programs. This book arguesthat all companies must understand how andwhy stakeholders react to such informationabout companies and their actions. It examinesthe two most important stakeholder groups tocompanies - consumers and employees - tocomprehend why, when and how they react toCR. Armed with this insight, it shows howcompanies can maximize the value of their CRinitiatives by fostering strong stakeholderrelationships to develop, implement andevaluate compelling social responsibilityprograms that generate value for both thecompany and its stakeholders.ISBN: 9781107652385 344pp ` 395.00ISBN: 9781107606180 198pp ` 295.0014

CambridgeHandbook ofCulture,Organizations, andWorkRabi S. Bhagat &Richard M. Steers (Eds.)It is now widely recognised that countriesaround the world are becoming increasinglyinterconnected, and that both public and privateorganizations are of necessity becomingincreasingly global. As political, legal, andeconomic barriers recede in this environment,cultural barriers emerge as a principalchallenge to organizational survival andsuccess. It is not yet clear whether these globalrealities will cause cultures to converge,harmonize, and seek common ground or toretrench, resist, and accentuate theirdifferences. In either case, it is of paramountimportance for both managers andorganizational scholars to understand thecultural crosscurrents underlying thesechanges. With contributions from aninternational team of scholars, the Handbook ofCulture, Organizations, and Work reviews,analyses, and integrates available theory andresearch to give the best information possibleconcerning the role of culture and culturaldifferences in organizational dynamics.ISBN: 9781107662902 560pp ` 595.00Business Ethicsand ContinentalPhilosophyMollie Painter-Morland &Rene ten Bos (Eds.)Business ethics has largely been written fromthe perspective of analytical philosophy withvery little attention paid to the work ofcontinental philosophers.
