Review: Best strategy book since Sun Tzu (seriously) - This book isn't particularly polished compared to most hardcover business books. It looks like the author basically took the lecture notes from his course and published them as a book. And what a book it is! The content is pure gold. Unlike the "fad of the month" or "if it worked for me it'll work for you" or just plain "gee whiz" of many books on business strategy, the concepts and method set out in this book are highly skeptical and therefore thoroughly rigorous. The ideas feel like they've been tested in the most challenging competitive environments (the author refers to his work at the most senior levels of Netflix). The book is not always easy to absorb, and tying everything back to an equation of economic value may be more interesting in theory than in practice (the author assigns great value to this Theory of Everything integration), but the book is worth a dozen of the books churned out by business strategy consultants. If you're interested in or must understand business strategy, this lesser-known book is a must-read. It has earned a place in my permanent collection, next to Sun Tzu.
Review: Fundamentals of business strategy - A great framework for understanding what enables businesses to create value and high differential returns. Deserves a place in the canon of high-impact business books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strategy book since Sun Tzu (seriously)
*by E***T on June 30, 2025*

This book isn't particularly polished compared to most hardcover business books. It looks like the author basically took the lecture notes from his course and published them as a book.

A great framework for understanding what enables businesses to create value and high differential returns. Deserves a place in the canon of high-impact business books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ detailed treatment of moats
*by K***R on October 22, 2025*

It took me a while to get into the book as some of the definitions are either fuzzy or provided much later (for example hysteresis). The main issue I have is exemplified by the Intel example. I worked at Intel in the 80s and 90s and I believe that the book missed the central role that Intel culture played in the company’s ability to execute and outperform AMD and Motorola. Otherwise great book and 20 years later still relevant
