'Reporting live from the scene, this book is very well timed. It's so current, it's not clear who the winners will be or what form the industry will take, and that makes their book all the more interesting. It's a methodical and disciplined survey of developments, and the authors leave plenty of room for the reader to speculate.' - Sir Terry Leahy, Chief Executive, Tesco plc
'A fascinating read about a central feature of modern life.' - Robert Clark, Leading Retail Market Analyst
'Cool, balanced and incisive, it represents a big advance in our understanding of a difficult subject.' - Kevin Hawkins, Director General, British Retail Consortium
