More Christensen-bashing

I have found the following article about a research case made by scientist Erwin Daneels. The piece is called Disruptive Technology Reconsidered:A Critique and Research Agenda. I have only read the summary so far, and it looks promising.

What Daneels claims is that only a handfull of disruptive technologies actually succeed and that Christensen searched for the patterns crucial for a disruptive technology.

To me, even though I like some of the critique put forward... very few seems to have the background and actual practice that Christensen has. Plus, sometimes its very good and interesting to conceptualize economic and business risks on a framework such as "disruptive innovation".
