The Amazon Economy Book

The Amazon Economy tells you everything you need to know about Amazon, the technological giant that is now much more than the online retailer founded by Jeff Bezos in 1994. The company's voracious expansion—into areas ranging from logistics and cloud computing to fashion and movie production—has put it at the head of a wider corporate ecosystem over which it wields extraordinary power. Regulators, politicians, consumers and other businesses ignore it at their peril. Based on a series of articles published by the Financial Times, The Amazon Economy has been specially updated as an e-book by Barney Jopson, U.S. retail correspondent for the global business newspaper and website, with contributions from the FT's influential Lex columnists, Robert Armstrong and Stuart Kirk, and global media editor, Andrew Edgecliffe-Johnson.
