New chapter (7): New Business Models and Strategies for the Internet Economy is unique to Thompson/Strickland. This new chapter demonstrates the authors' commitment to the most up-to-date conceptual coverage. It's included because given today's economy, most strategy discussions will need to include an internet economy discussion to be complete.
New chapter (6): Strategies for Competing in Globalizing Markets increases the global scope of the new edition, a key area of concern to most strategy instructors.
In response to readers' and reviewers' suggestions, the authors have carefully edited the theoretical presentation to make it more concise and added more real-world examples throughout the text.
