内容説明
This book highlights certain topics in the field of decision making, corporate planning, and organization theory, and continues the debate about crises in the study of management. In particular, the new modelling tools of operational research are afflicted with problems of validity and implementation, while much of the current research into organization behaviour and design does not seem relevant to problems encountered by managers in real life. The author takes a novel look at a number of the issues involved and points out the strengths and shortcomings of the approaches adopted in the literature.
