Dumaine also spotlights the firms, large and small, that have managed to Amazon-proof their businesses by discovering what the Seattle juggernaut is not good at. Revealed here will be a trove of tips for surviving in the Age of Amazon. (From the back cover)Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due |
