Professor Chris Coker, London School of Economics Reconstructing Strategy: Dancing with the God of Objectivity pioneers an approach to strategy based on Dr. Saqib Qureshi's insight that self-identity is the prime strategic directive. Qureshi demonstrates the failures of modern strategy, covering personal strategy, organizational strategy and foreign policy strategy partly through the works of three modern strategists. With examples ranging from Disneyland to the Iranian Revolution, from Jan Morris to Great Britain's Suez Crisis of 1956, Reconstructing Strategy then elucidates self-identity's impact on strategy. The book's depth, and Qureshi's breezily unpretentious style, make it a worthy read. A delightfully nonstandard approach to strategy that doesn't get bogged down by hyper-technical language.

Kirkus Reviews For those with an interest in an enlightened and broad view of strategy, Reconstructing Strategy is sure to be a compelling book.
Foreword Reviews Using the construct of self-identity as the starting point to define and develop strategy is a stroke of genius. Dr Qureshi argues his case with great effect, humour and wisdom; enabling any individual, organization or government to begin a coherent and meaningful conversation on strategy.
