Georgia in Antiquity
The first full history of ancient Georgia ever to be written outside Georgia itself, this book also serves as a valuable introduction to the substantial archaeological work that has been carried out there in recent decades. Designed to open up ancient Georgia for the world of scholarship at large, it is not only a history of a neglected region, but also a sustained attempt to inform topics and issues that are more familiar to the historians of antiquity. Examples include myths of the periphery; Caucasian mountains and their passes; Greek colonization; the Persian, Athenian, and Selecuid empires; Pompey's conquest of Mithridates' empire; the development of the Roman frontier in the eastern Black Sea region; Roman diplomacy in Iberia; the Christianization of Iberia; Sassanian ambitions in Transcaucasia; and Byzantine warfare there.

Creating a Competitive Intelligence Capability
Aimed at practitioners within the field of Competitive Intelligence (CI), this book is about establishing a CI capability within organisations. The book is written against the backdrop of numerous publications in which the field of CI has been introduced and explained by means of the CI framework or CI cycle. However, many CI practitioners are confronted with the reality of having to make the transition from the 'what' to the "how" and need guidelines on establishing a CI capability. This book thus aims to provide CI practitioners but also CI students at all levels with an overview of the challenges in terms of establishing a CI capability as well as the best practices in terms of addressing CI challenges within an organisational context. This book will enable the CI practitioners to transform his/her organisation from being an informed organisation to being an intelligent organisation.
