’Obstructive Marketing represents a unique and timely addition to the literature relating to marketing, general management and business intelligence. The book is current, well researched and integrates well various subject areas that are often treated in isolation. The author has put in place both an historical and a theoretical framework, and the philosophical insights provided should allow managers and business leaders to gain insights into current strategic issues. The style used is appropriate and will suit well academic researchers and those that are keen to learn more about the challenges and issues that are high up on senior management’s agenda. For example, risk and uncertainty, resilience and hardening the organization, and crisis management are covered well. In addition, the many case examples and references cited should assist the reader to link theory and practice, and view the subject from a holistic perspective.’ Peter Trim, Senior Lecturer in Management and Director of CAMIS, Birkbeck, University of London, UK
