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. With contributions by Aman Narang, Niteen Bali, Shubhra Chaudhry, AmanchaVamshikrishna, Anant Singh, Karthi Prakash and Namit Jain.
