`There are many...excellent papers, and really too many to list or describe here. Interestingly, the papers are all short; ranging from two to about a dozen pages in length and yet one is not left with the impression that either quality nor the messge has been either diluted or lost through brevity....It is likely that the book will appeal to and be most appropriate for students new to the study of management, who wish to be introduced to what it is that the management theorist can offer the practitioner.
Although now somewhat outdated the collection provides a useful overview of some key concepts and classic theories. The text book could be used as a starting point to evaluate the progress of modern theory in relation to the role of the manager
good informative book useful for supplementary reading
