Review
`Drucker, the most enduring management thinker of our time'
Business Week
`...it would be difficult to overestimate his contribution to management thinking' Financial Times
`Peter Drucker was the first analytical futurist and the first of the management philosophers. And for me he is still the best'
Wall Street Journal
'This is a powerful book...it certainly challenges our thinking. And on finishing it, one is certainly in a different place from where one started.'
Marketing Business, September 1995
'The subject mix is eclectic, the arguments challenging and cogent and the prose simple and readable. No wonder he has dominated the field of management writing for so long.'
The Financial Times - Business Internat., December 1995
'This is essentially a book for the established and experienced, and so far ranging are Drucker's thoughts on the future, that there is something there for everyone from international statesman to proprietor of a family business.'
Modern Management, February 1996
'Drucker is the foremost and most enduring mangement thinker. It would
be difficult to overestimate his contribution to management thinking, and
this latest book again stimulates the reader by the breadth of vision and
realism. Unreservedly recommended it covers four major topics:
Management, Society, and concludes with an interview on Managing in a
post Capitalist Society.
Do make reading this book a top priority.'
About the Author
Born in Vienna in 1909, Peter F. Drucker was educated in Austria and England. From 1929 he was a newspaper correspondent abroad and an economist for an international bank in London. Since 1937 he has been in the United States, first as an economist for a group of British banks and insurance companies, and later as a management consultant to several of the country's largest companies, as well as leading companies abroad. Drucker has since had a distinguished career as a teacher, first as Professor of Politics and Philosophy at Bennington College, then for more than twenty years as Professor of Management at the Graduate Business School of New York University. Since 1971 he has been Clarke Professor of Social Science at Claremont Graduate School in California. In addition to his management books, Peter Drucker is also renowned for his prophetic books analysing politics, economics and society. These books span fifty years of modern history beginning with The End of Economic Man (1939) and including The Practice of Management; Innovation and Entrepreneurship; Managing in the Next Society; Management Challenges in the 21st Century; The Effective Executive and The Essential Drucker.
