. XII,325p. With 48 figures (photographs, charts, etc.; 1 folding) and 9 (8 folding) plates at end. Orig. gilt blue cloth. Very light spotting of back and marginal tear in 1 leaf, still a fine copy. First edition. An expanded version of an article with the same title, published in the journal Industrial Engineering of the previous year. In it, the author outlines the organization of a plant under scientific management. 'The instructions and forms show substantially the medium employed to incorporate the principles of the Science of Management into an efficent organization suitable for a plant under the specific conditions illustrated. The methods described are based on the practice of the Ferracute Machine Company, and differ only slightly from the approved practice of the original Taylor group.' *Thompson p.32.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
