The list is typically dominated by American management books, but this year two books from CBS Maritime made it into the top 10 in fourth and sixth place, respectively.

Martin Iversen, Associate Professor at CBS, recounts the history of the East Asiatic Company Ltd. (EAC) and the impact the company has had on the Danish business community from 1897 to 2015. The excellent interaction between text and chosen pictures, distinguishes the book from most other business books.

The book provides a good understanding of the development of the competitive conditions in a global industry.
