Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Feb 12, 2009 Type: User Review Too Slow....

The Exerience Economy was way too slow and technical for such a dynamic subject. Joseph Pine undoubtedly knows his stuff but his knowledge was not delivered well in the form of a book.

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 18, 2009 Type: User Review Glad to see companies are getting it

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: Jun 11, 2001 Type: User Review if you only have a hammer, you see every problem as a nail
