Very good in Very good jacket. xii, [4], 415, [1] pages. Postscript. Notes. Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Inscribed and dated inside the page facing the half-title page by the author (Magaziner). Ira Magaziner (born November 8, 1947) is an American advisor. He was born in New York City. After being a student activist and business consultant, Magaziner became the senior advisor for policy development for President Clinton, especially as chief healthcare policy advisor. He now serves in a leadership capacity for two of the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation's international development initiatives, which are at the forefront of non-governmental organizations in addressing Global Health and Environmental issues. Mark Patinkin is an American author and nationally syndicated columnist for the Providence Journal. He is a graduate of Middlebury College. He was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for international reporting, and he has won three New England Emmy awards for television commentaries. He is the author of several books. Derived from a Kirkus review: Perceptions backed by object lessons on what it might take American business to remain competitive in world markets during the 1990's and beyond. Drawing on his own experiences as a consultant, Magaziner--and collaborator Patinkin--offer a series of well-done case studies that shed considerable light on the challenges facing US industry in its efforts to retain an ascendant position in the international economy. A crucial ingredient in their prescription for prevailing against offshore rivals in an indigenous production base built and run by executives willing as well as able to take a long-term view; other key elements include technological leadership, a skilled work force, and export muscle. They believe that coordinating group could prove effective in encouraging an organized response should American industry be falling behind in important areas. Among the enterprises singled out are South Korea's Samsung, the five-nation consortium comprising Airbus Industrie, Sanyo and other Japanese companies committed to photovoltaics, Corning Glass Works, and General Electric. A solid contribution to the debate that's heating up on US competitiveness.
