over the field of competitive strategy. On Competition, Updated
Edition brings together more than a dozen of Porter''s landmark
articles from the Harvard Business Review. Five are new to this
edition, including the 2008 update to his classic "The Five
Competitive Forces That Shape Strategy," as well as new work on
health care, philanthropy, corporate social responsibility, and CEO
leadership.
This collection captures Porter''s unique ability to bridge
theory and practice. Each of the articles has not only shaped
thinking, but also redefined the work of practitioners in its
respective field. In an insightful new introduction, Porter relates
each article to the whole of his thinking about competition and
value creation, and traces how that thinking has deepened over
time.

easy access to the wide range of Porter''s work. Parts I and II
present the frameworks for which Porter is best known frameworks

and sustain competitive advantage. Part III shows how strategic
thinking can address society''s most pressing challenges, from
environmental sustainability to improving health-care delivery.
Part IV explores how both nonprofits and corporations can create
value for society more effeapplying strategy principles to
philanthropy. Part V explores the link between Strategy and
Leadership
