As well as adding to the ongoing debate, it shows how the concept evolved, considers how it can be measured and, through a revealing set of case studies, demonstrates how different organisations are applying the notion. As one reviewer put it, it is set to become an essential textbook on the subject. You can download the first chapter below.
