Sorry for the gap in postings, but I have finally escaped to my first vacation in three years. While on vacation, I came across the special August 22-29 Business Week double issue focusing on “China and India: What You Need to Know Now” (the online edition has a lot of material not available in the print edition). It is full of interesting articles on these two emerging economies and reflects growing interest in the business impact of these two countries – the focus of The Only Sustainable Edge . Unfortunately, though, the articles reflect the weaknesses of much Western coverage of China and India. This coverage tends to veer from eye-opening macro-economic statistics to interesting stories about individual companies. From a strategist’s viewpoint, though, what I miss in such coverage is any deep analysis of the patterns of business innovation that might help to explain the explosive growth in both economies or the implications for Western companies. Open distribution - the first pattern of innovation In this respect, Business Week does a better job on the India front. Manjeet Kripalani has a particularly good article, “Asking the Right Questions” on innovation among Indian companies. She tells interesting stories about Indian companies like ICICI Bank, Indian Tobacco Company (ITC) and Tata eye doctor georgia otors. (For more detail on the efforts of ICICI Bank and ITC in particular, see the case studies included in C.K. Prahalad’s The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid .

A couple of readers kindly called to my attention what purports to be a review of my edited collection The Future for Philosophy published in The Economist , though the review itself is unsigned (Anthony Gottlieb, a philosophical popularizer, is an editor at that journal, but it is unclear whether broker insurance lead e is responsible for this item [UPDATE: Gottlieb assures me he is not the author.]). Despite the fact that the review is short--and the second edition of Ted Honderich's Oxford Companion to Philosophy (to which I also contributed, with help a year ago from many readers --my thanks again!) is also being reviewed in the same piece--several paragraphs are given over to the following quite unbelievable smear of the contributors and me: The editor of the collection, Brian Leiter, makes a plea for three thinkers whom the analytical tradition tends to neglect or dismiss: Marx, Nietzsche and Freud. Backing unfashionable figures is not the only reason he stands out. A while ago he hit on a solution to the question of how to rank philosophy departments....It is called the Philosophical Gourmet and you can see it on the web. Although plenty of philosophers consult the Gourmet , it makes others of them cringe. Two years ago close on 300, including some from top-ranked New York University and Rutgers, wrote an open letter complaining that Mr Leiter's table measured reputation, not excellence, and that it was driving good students away from middle-rank colleges in a race for the top.
