‘The third edition of the Handbook adds a dozen new chapters and updates many existing ones, while keeping the foundational contributions that link strategy as practice with major social and organization theories. It continues to be a wonderful reference work. This third edition also signals the dynamism and vibrancy of strategy as practice, from which truly novel and unexpected research findings will continue to emerge.’ Robert A. Burgelman, Stanford University
