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.
The survey of the field of management begins with Eli Whitney, inventor of the cotton gin, who failed to create a successful business based on it, and ends with Peter Drucker, who is probably the most respected management thinker in America today, but who has never run a business. Each chapter of the book is devoted to a specific figure and describes not only that person''s contribution to the field, but explores the wider social context in which the person lived and worked. Figures explored include: Thomas Edison, Andrew Carnegie, Henry Ford, Richard W. Sears, Alexander Graham Bell, J. Pierpont Morgan, Frederick W. Taylor, Alfred P. Sloan, and W. Edwards Deming.
