Summary
"This book is a pioneering work with an innovative way of explaining IC. It is excellent reading material with illustrative learning cases. The focus on monetization of knowledge products and services is very inspiring. The worksheets in the end of each chapter will be a very practicable approach. I can strongly recommend this for not only reading but also application. It is timely and interesting for business as well as the G-20 leaders as we move out of the global recession."--Leif Edvinsson, the World's First Director of Intellectual Capital" "Intangible Capital is a breakthrough book. Adams and Oleksak have managed the near impossible: to make the complex topic of intangible assets understandable and meaningful to businessmen, policymakers and the general public. I consider this a guidebook to the economy of the 21st century."--Kenan Jarboe, President, Athena Alliance" "Mary Adams and Michael Oleksak bring a much needed new perspective on value and wealth to the M & A marketplace with this insightful book highlighting intangible capital. Because of the primary historical focus on tangible assets only, financial advisors and investors of all types would be well served to study this overview very carefully before doing deals in this new century. Seeing the intangible side of a business. as the Ǹew Factory' truly is now an essential skill for middle-market dealmakers of all types."--Michael R. Nall, Founder, Alliance of M & A Advisors."
