Den Osynliga Balansräkningen Den Osynliga Balansräkningen
The Invisible Balance Sheet.

This book outlines the theory that underlies the three "families" of Intangible Assets and it also coined the labels "Kundkapital", "Strukturkapital" and "Individkapital"; in English: "Customer Capital, "Structural Capital" and "Human Capital". The book sparked the early Swedish discourse in measuring intangible assets. Both the categorization and the labels have since become close to a standard both in Scandinavia and have gained acceptance world wide.

The book was the result of a working group called "Konrad" and  was originally published in Swedish. The translation was never published, but both the Swedish original and the English translation are now available as downloads.
