Summary: Great Concepts for us to take in
Comment: I have often read and reread Prof. Pfeffer's books. I give this one 3-stars because I found less than half the book of value. I find the examples quite colorful, interesting, and thought provoking. It's just too bad that the book didn't have a lot of value for the money (unlike his other books). I read this book the last time about 2 years ago, each time I pick it up I read less and less. The first time I read it, I read 5 chapters and now I'm down to 2. I wish I could say that it's because I see many of the concepts being implemented within corporate America and as such I have less need for the information.

Summary: Pfeffer gives excellent arguments!
Comment: Competive advantage through people is a great management book for the turn of the century. With a load of great ideas and innovative techniques, Pfeffer gets his message across. Although, one thing that I had notice when reading the book, is that Pfeffer repeats himself quite a lot. I feel that for a book aimed at the business world, management does not have time to read information twice. But, overall, it was a very interesting and enlighting book.

Summary: The author documents numerous Southern companies
Comment: The Stanford professor's most recent book, Managing With Power, sold very well. Among the companies he documents here are Southwest Airlines, Wal-Mart, Tyson Foods, Circuit City, and Plenum Publishing.
