This book advances diagnosis-prognosis models that mark antecedent frames in various commercial forms of communication—annual reports, investigative fiction–Poirot series, Sci-Fi, and advertisements.The authors thereby develop a study of narrative markets by proposing the narrative of things as the next innovative mega trend in business analytics. A unique feature of the book is the special section dedicated to industry-academic practitioners, who have offered a bird’s-eye view in the Review Speak section of every chapter of this book.
