Management Lessons from Game of Thrones is now available!

 A non-Kaldor, but KC-related, project is now complete: Management Lessons from Game of Thrones!  This is the management textbook you never knew you wanted, but now you know you have to have it: learn all about strategy, organisation studies and personnel management through battles, murders, and really bloody weddings. The hardback has a scary academic price tag, but the paperback has a nice friendly RRP of £20/$30 or equivalent, and you can get ebooks from the publisher's website.
