Bill Starbuck has been one of the leading management researchers
over several decades. In this book he reflects on a number of
challenges associated with management and social science research -
the search for a 'behavioral science', the limits of rationality,
the unreliability of many research findings, the social shaping of
research agendas, cultures and judgements. It is an engaging,
chronologically structured account in which he discusses some of
his own research projects and various methodological debates. This
is a feisty argument from someone who has been fully engaged with
all aspects of research - carrying out research programmes,
evaluating research, tirelessly questioning the assumptions and
claims of social science research, and never avoiding the awkward
theoretical or practical challenges that face organizational
researchers. Well written, provocative and unusual, this quasi
autobiographical account will inform and entertain, and be a
valuable guide to current and future research students.
