Examples are drawn from the merger of two savings banks, a series of acquisitions and divestitures involving a large food retailer, and a joint venture with a merger stipulation between two entrepreneurial computer services companies. Buono teaches management and sociology at Bentley College, and Bowditch is a former academic who specialized in the human effects of organizational change. The volume was originally published in 1989 by Jossey-Bass.
