Summary "Economic Foundations of Strategy provides not only the essential basic tenets of strategy, it also shows the interrelationships of five major theories of the firm: behavioral theory; transaction costs theory; property rights theory; agency theory; and dynamic resource-based theory. Economic Foundations of Strategy emphasizes the complementarities among these five theories of organization, and the potential for integrating these theories in the evolving science of organization. Applications of these theories to business practice are emphasized throughout the book."--BOOK JACKET
