Ask HN: Looking for book recommendations on Walmart

Hey folks! I'm looking for some good books that are good reading material for current day walmart culture and strategy.

I came across Walmart Effect by Charles Fishman (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/74915.The_Wal_Mart_Effect), but much of the world has changed since that book came out 13 years ago - There has been an economic recession, a protectionist regime is now present in US, and Amazon has taken over as the giant killer.

Would really appreciate any inciteful comments from the community here.

Context: Walmart recently acquired majority stake in Indian ecom leader Flipkart for $16-19bn, and as someone from the Indian startup ecosystem, I want to gather a better understanding of the Walmart culture.
