This timely Handbook brings together chapters written by a stellar cast of expert authors from around the globe, arranged around eleven core themes, to provide a comprehensive overview of key issues, developments, debates and potential future directions for this dynamic field of study:

Part 1: Introduction and Background

Part 4: Service Ecosystems

Part 5: Institutions and Institutional Arrangements

Part 6: Resources and Resource Integration    

Part 7: Actors and Practices

Part 8: Innovation

This Handbook is an essential reference text for scholars, students, consultants and advanced practitioners across a wide range of business & management practices and academic disciplines.

To understand modern marketing and modern economies, one should understand service-dominant logic. To understand service-dominant logic, I strongly recommend reading The SAGE Handbook of Service-Dominant Logic. It is complete, well documented, insightful, and shows the way forward. -- Professor Shelby D. Hunt
This is the most comprehensive book on Service Dominant-Logic from the leading authors of the field. This is the definite reference and source of inspiration for those interested in the changing paradigm of value creation and its potential applications. The topic is more relevant than ever as platforms, disruptive technologies and changing consumer behavior transform business models. -- Dr Katri Kallio
The SAGE Handbook of Service-Dominant Logic is a handy reference that summarizes Steve Vargo & Bob Lusch′s influential concept of service-dominant logic.  Including a variety of chapters from notable researchers working in the general area, the handbook expands on Vargo & Lusch′s interactive and co-creative view of the economy, in which all value emerges from use, and everything, even goods, may usefully be considered service.
