His book "The Alliance Revolution: The New Shape of Business Rivalry" was one of the first in-depth studies of today's high-tech alliances, and introduced the idea of competition among alliance "constellations." His articles have appeared in Harvard Business Review, Financial Times, Strategy & Business, Sloan Management Review, Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, Journal of Financial Economics, and elsewhere. His work has been cited widely, including in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Harvard Management Update.
