Rational Ritual: Culture, Coordination, and Common Knowledge

The book is interesting. The reading of it is too fast in my opinion and slowing it down is quite annoying to listen to. This rating is for the audio only though.

This is an interesting and compelling book. Although it is not really written as a marketing or business text, it has much to offer in those areas. The ideas in the book form a tool set that can be used to explain why successful companies do the things that they do. I read the book three times in a couple of weeks just to be sure that I was understanding all of the concepts. Since then I have given copies to 3 business associates, all of whom have become fans.I now consider this book to be one of my best "secret weapons" when thinking about business tactics and strategy.

A good book.

This book is a nice extension of game theory into the area of culture and ritual. Some of Chwe's arguments seem a bit of a stretch, but I think his basic premise is sound.

Overly and unnecessarily academic. I have a long academic background myself and got bored quickly.

Exact delivery and nice contents of book

Good quality
