Sommario/riassunto |
|
Presents a survey of the field of management, which begins with Eli Whitney, inventor of the cotton gin, and ends with Peter Drucker. Each chapter of this book is devoted to a specific figure and describes not only that person's contribution to the field, but also explores the social context in which the person lived and worked. |
