<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Following his "New York Times" bestseller, "The Long Tail, Free" is another look at the radical new way business is done. . . . [It] shows a new economic model that goes way beyond the old concepts of free with purchase'.--Will Baillett.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>The online economy offers challenges to traditional businesses as well as incredible opportunities. Chris Anderson makes the compelling case that in many instances businesses can succeed best by giving away more than they charge for.</strong><br /> <br /> Known as "Freemium," this combination of free and paid is emerging as one of the most powerful digital business models. In <em>Free</em>, Chris Anderson explores this radical idea for the new global economy and demonstrates how it can be harnessed for the benefit of consumers <em>and</em> businesses alike.<br /> <br /> In the twenty-first century, <em>Free</em> is more than just a promotional gimmick: It's a business strategy that is essential to a company's successful future.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"I'd put Anderson and his work on par with Malcolm Gladwell and Clayton M. Christensen as one of the more important pieces of business philosophy published in the emerging global, digital era."--<b><i>Alan T.
