This is a terrific collection of up-to-date research and thinking on a very timely topic. Many, many managers are struggling to make sense of virtuality and the global diffusion of work teams. This volume, while short of glib and easy answers, will provide them with much-needed tools and approaches for understanding this new wave of workplace innovation and disruption. -- Laurence Prusak, Executive Director, IBM Institue for Knowledge Management Distributed Work is the most comprehensive collection of research on this topic I have ever read.

The chapters on historical business models are especially relevant to today's work world. -- Charles Grantham, Founder and Chief Scientist, Institute for the Study of Distributed Work
