This is a book for business men. It is not a book of sermons. It
was written for those interested in the early beginnings of
business.... Some of the subject matter of this little volume is
projected against the historical backgrounds of Biblical
narratives. With all due reverence for the Great Book, the Biblical
characters mentioned are reflected in the light of everyday life,
as men who shared in their day the common life experiences of
mankind, just as we share them in our world today. -from Business
Men of the Bible This delightful and enlightening little volume of
sermons reminds us that much of what we take for granted in the
modern business world-from secretaries to labor unions, from the
weekly payroll to planned economies-were not our inventions but
concepts with roots that go back to the beginning of time. By
looking at contemporary economic woes, which can seem wholly modern
and intractable, through the prism of the worlds of ancient
workers-the farmer, the merchant, the architect, the builder, the
engineer, the artisan, the physician, the politician, the teacher,
and others-Muir reminds us that the solutions are within our
grasp... but that modern technology is not necessarily the answer.
This is a timeless work of business philosophy. JAMES C. MUIR also
wrote The Spade and the Scriptures.
