Nothing good to say, except

Could be Better 
The text is very heavy on the theory and provides a good background in the subject matter. Less pompous writing style could make it more readable. There are numerous spelling errors and instances of the words confused (tack instead of track, stricture instead of structure). Maybe upcoming editions will be better.

Really disappointing and useless.
This book is really disappointing. When the it was delivered at home, I thought the box was empty: the book is as thin as a magazine!
The content is very theorical, completely useless for executives.
Maybe OK for students who have no clue at all about what strategy is, but definitely useless for executives.
