我自己读起来感觉前言不搭后语的（捂脸），非常感谢！

This lack of enthusiasm for the power of ideas extends more widely than
one might suspect. Most people familiar with the field would probably agree
that the leading journal of management ideas aimed at practitioners is
Harvard Business Review. But fewer than 4 percent of the sixty-five
thousand living alumni of the Harvard Business School subscribe to that
venerable publication. On its op-ed pages, the Wall Street Journal routinely
mounted closely argued exegeses of economic, political, and policy concepts.
Comb through the newspaper’s archives for the past four decades, though,
and try to find comparably detailed coverage of the experience curve, say, or
the value chain, or time-based competition. If you want to make a
management consultant squirmingly uncomfortable, even one who churns out
articles and books, just ask whether he or she thinks of himself or herself as
an intellectual.

In other words—and maybe this helps ward off the dread specter of
intellectualism—these were almost always ideas sharp with a purpose,
namely, to solve a problem bedeviling a company. The secret intellectual
history of the new corporate world is as much about the challenges
companies faced, from competing with the Japanese in the 1970s to surviving
a crisis in the global financial system in the twenty-first century, as it is about
the conceptual solutions devised in response. Our story is, in that sense, an
account of how the economy and the world we live in today have become
what they are. Stock markets rise, fall, rise again, then come crashing down,
as they have done recently. Nations wax and wane in their prosperity.
Warsbreak out on distant frontiers. Through it all, strategy has enjoyed a
remarkable constancy, the preferred if ever-evolving framework by which
companies understand what is happening to them and how they should react.
