Synopsis
A collection of the thoughts of many great writers on organizations. These writers are from a variety of different backgrounds. Some draw upon their expertise as practising managers, some on their knowledge of rational and local government administration, and some on the findings of their research work. All have attempted to draw together information and distil theories about how organizations function and how they should be managed. The volume seeks to provide a general overview of the field, and does not provide critical analysis of the views provided.

From the Inside Flap
Great Writers on Organizations presents succinctly each of the contributions made by 80 of the most prominent management thinkers to the understanding of organizational behaviour and managerial thinking. Among those included are early theorists such as Henri Fayol, Frederick W. Taylor and Max Weber, classical writers such as Alfred D. Chandler, Peter Drucker and Frederick Herzberg, through to modern thinkers such as Oliver Williamson, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, and Charles Handy. New writers included in the Third Omnibus Edition are: Lex Donaldson, Stewart Clegg, Richard Whitley, Michel Foucault and Kathleen Eisenhardt. The volume is an indispensable resource for academics, students and managers on what the great writers have to say about the key managerial tasks of how to organize and motivate.
