Retail is a dog-eat-dog world - and nobody has cannibalized market share more ruthlessly or influenced consumers, communities and competition around the world more profoundly than "category killers" like Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, and Costco. This book explores how they did it, what other companies can glean from their killer strategies, and what's next in retail's future.
Robert Spector is a veteran journalist who has covered the retail sector for many years. (former USA Today reporter).
