In the past decade, complexity-based thinking has exerted
increasing, yet somewhat controversial influence over management
theory and practice. This has in some part been due to the
influence of a number of high-profile articles and the not
inconsiderable hype which accompanied them. Another feature of the
subject's development has been the diversity of the origins of the
thinking and the claims which have been made for it in terms of
managerial and organizational implications.
This is the first text to bring this thinking together, presenting
some of the most influential writing in the field and showing how
the subject has emerged, developed and continues to influence
managerial thinking. Seminal contributions to the field have been
brought together in a single accessible volume, allowing readers to
access what might otherwise appear a very diffuse literature.
Moreover, the editors, who represent some of the leading thinkers
and writers in this field, have combined these readings with a
unique commentary, indicating not only the significance of the
papers but teasing out the subtle but significant differences and
similarities between them. These commentaries take the form of a
discussion between the editors, debating the contribution that each
paper has made to the field and the influence it has had on
management thinking.
Providing a unique overview, this accessible and thought-provoking
reader will be an essential resource for anyone interested in
complexity-based approaches.
