About this product
Product Information
L v que recounts twenty revealing tales of real-life rivalry between firms across diverse industries, including wine, skiing, opera, video games and cruise liners. These entertaining and insightful narratives are informed by recent advances in economics, factoring in the many forces driving competition, including globalization and innovation. Divided into four sections, the book covers competition and the market; competition and variety; competition through innovation; and competition and equality. Read together, these stories also serve as building blocks to address the issue of whether competition between firms has entered a new era of increased intensity. This book will appeal to anyone, from company executives to consumers, who are interested in the economics of contemporary industry and want to incorporate a grasp of competition into their everyday decision-making. This book can also be used as a supplementary text in courses in microeconomics, business economics and industrial organisation.

Reviews
What has economics to say about skis, shipping, soccer and cereals? A great deal, as Leveque shows in this addictively appealing book. Leveque draws on the brilliant insights and evidence that leading economists studying industries and markets have amassed over the past 40 years to lay out the various workings of competition in different industries. Falling transport costs, innovation and the digital revolution have transformed the world of industry and commerce. This book may do for Industrial Organization what Freakonomics did for the economics of the "Hidden Side of Everything". David Newbury, Emeritus Professor and Director of The Energy Policy Research Group (EPRG), University of Cambridge
