a MUST read.
B2B Exchanges is one of the BEST books ever written on the topic of B2B, this book is not a hype B2B book, the book offers real value and insight into the role, the future and the features of B2B exchanges on the Internet. The book covers a vital emerging industry, for those of you who are interested in business, business methods, exchanges, B2B models or simply the future of the business Internet I strongly recommend this book. It is an easy read, but fully packed with useful information, we have actually adapted some of the points in the book as the core of our business plan.
The authors background in the financial markets offers a rare combination and an excellent ability to link and apply proven financial market models to the growing B2B space, it is worth noting as well that B2B is not the only topic covered, but the whole concept of exchanges and their application on the internet is explained and analyzed. ...

Below Average book
It is an ok book for B2B introduction. That is all it is worthwhile reading. Also, some of these information are somewhat outdated. Financial market is very different than electronics market for example. Sure some of the market fundamentals are similar (such as liquidity, and transaction level....), but the nature of the underlying assets is very different. Get an used one or borrow from someone for a quick reading.... I bought it brand new while visiting Hong Kong..

Bringing business together to maximize value
Sculley and Woods define how the Web is being used to add value to the supply chain and exchange of business information. Their case by case look at some of the players (whom they are invested in), shows how new plays are being enacted in the marketplace. A very interesting read (that helped spike the prices of B2B stocks), only time will tell how relevant these companies are (if they survive the recent .com meltdown).
