The author examines how RCA shaped a sophisticated consumer electronics technology in a research and development effort that spanned fifteen years. We see how the company's history, its structure, its technical capability, and its competition all influenced the choices that were made in moving VideoDisc from laboratory to development group to market, and ultimately to withdrawal from the marketplace. Published in hardcover as RCA and the VideoDisc.

Book excerpt: Doing Research in Business and Management has been written to help students obtain a thorough understanding of the main methodological issues and options that are available to them as business and management researchers undertaking a masters or doctoral degree. Doing Research in Business and Management takes the reader through all of the important issues that need to be understood if a competent piece of research is to be produced at the masters or doctoral level in the business and management studies. The authors explain the interrelationship between the theoretical and empirical research as well as the differences between positivism and phenomenology. Not only do they put these concepts in context for the business and management student, but they go on to discuss how these different approaches are used in practice. Furthermore, the authors discuss the implications of quantitative and qualitative approaches to research. The book offers high-level advice on different numerical techniques available to researchers as well as different software packages that may be used for analyzing qualitative data. The book also discusses the use of the Internet to support research in masters and doctoral programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you interested in postgraduate studies but worried about the research component? Are you faced with a complex business problem and do not know how to go about solving it? With changes in the world of work come new theories, new meanings and new applications. These require scientific methodologies and research strategies to obtain data and analyse it in such a way that the outcomes are reliable and generalisable. Research is synonymous with knowledge-creating which, in turn, is linked to innovation. Both of these are critical for economic and social development, as well as business development. But not all business practitioners are good researchers. And the broad landscape of the modern business world begs for a set of plans and models that can simultaneously provide stability and a breadth of development. This book offers this. The book provides easy referencing to most research techniques in the business domain. Depending on the problem at hand, there are numerous quantitative and qualitative methods described, as well as ways and means to write down the main problem. Beginners and specialists are reminded how to read and write academically and how to become good researchers.
