Title: MAKING OF MODERN MANAGEMENT: BRITISH MANAGEMENT IN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Description: "The term management is commonly used in three ways: as a process or activity; as a structure in any organization; and as a group or class of people carrying out certain roles in an organization. This book is the first detailed account of the evolution of management in all three senses. The focus is mainly on the UK, but throughout the broader question of why corporate management structures developed so impressively in the USA, Germany, and Japan, while arguably little progress was made in this regards in the UK, is present."--Jacket.
