Of all the sciences and social sciences, management is the one that
most deliberately turns its back on the past. Yet management as we
know it today did not spring into life fully formed. Management has
more than just a present; it also has a past, and a future, and all
three are inextricably linked. This book charts the evolution of
management as an intellectual discipline, from ancient times to the
present day. Contemporary management challenges, including
sustainability, technology and data, and legitimacy are analysed
through an historical lens and with the benefit of new case
studies. The author helps readers understand how the evolution of
management ideas has interacted with changes in society. By framing
management's history as one of challenge and response, this new
edition is the perfect accompaniment for students and scholars
seeking meaningful study in the business school and beyond.
Essential reading as a core textbook in management history, the
book is also valuable supplementary reading across the humanities
and social sciences.
