Merely a republication of articles from other books. There is really nothing new here. This repackages older material and adds almost no value to the KM literature, except that it puts some old articles all in one place. The most recent paper is from 1995. Most of the 15 other papers are much older.
The real work in putting this title together was reading some articles and then negotiating the rights to republish them.
The author is an Ernst and Young KM consultant who read some articles and then slapped on what he thought were appropriate section titles on various chapters. He provides an 8-page introduction that puts a KM wrapper to the original papers.
The value is provided exclusively by others.
This felt like a scam promulgated by the publisher or the consultant who wanted a title to their credit.
I was expecting some serious value-added by the author. I was seriously disappointed.
It would have been better as a review article covering the articles that were republished.
Amazon should have a "zero stars" or "one-half star" rating for titles like this.
