The second edition follows the highly successful first edition in filling an important under-served niche in the strategy arena: a casebook on business strategy in Asia. As a teaching tool, the usage of case studies is widespread in business strategy courses. Many case studies are focused on companies from developed economies, especially from the U.S. and Western Europe, leaving a large void in terms of understanding the strategies of Asian companies. This book aims to fill this void in the current offerings of textbooks. Written by experts on Asian business, it is a unique and comprehensive collection of cases about the strategies of Asian firms. The cases are wide-ranging, covering a diverse range of issues, geographic contexts, industries and decision situations. The rigor and depth of information included in each of the cases provides considerable versatility to educators in terms of usage at various levels. The cases have been carefully chosen to represent the geographic and economic diversity of the different countries, industries, and firms within Asia.
