"This is a fascinating aspect of organisations which is now ubiquitous. The complexity has only increased over time. Given the need for a strong oraganistional framework to support a `virtual' organistion, there has been limited focus on this area and I am thus delighted that this book delves into this topic which should assist both the observer and the practitioner."
