Abstract
When I joined Bocconi University at the beginning of 2008, I already knew Vittorio Coda from my previous visits to Bocconi and our joint involvement in Eni’s corporate university. Although I was aware of Professor Coda’s leading role in the development of strategic management at Bocconi and within Italy, the barrier of language had prevented me from reading all but a few of his writings. These translations of a selection of Professor Coda’s papers have offered me a wonderful opportunity to become acquainted with his research.
