This collection of readings examines the writings of individuals who were beginning to put forth some substantive ideas about the management of business enterprises. This volume focuses on the organization and management of early enterprises, manufacturing methods and the role of labour, wage payment plans, the human side of enterprise, and how business was viewed in a broader social context. Within each of these topics, the writings of pioneers such as Alfred and Mary Marshall, Charles Babbage, Robert Owen, Charles Dickens, Frederick Taylor, and numerous others tell the story of management thought in its formative stages.

"A look at the origins, leaders, growth, and operations of Wal-Mart, the discount retailing company whose first store opened in 1962 and which today is one of the largest corporations in the world"--Provided by pulisher.

"This book recounts the life and career of Raquel Liberman, a Polish Jewish prostitute and victim of the White Slave Trade, which brought women from Eastern Europe to Argentina from the late 1880s to the 1930s. This volume sheds light on the events leading up to a dramatic confrontation between Raquel Liberman and the Zwi Migdal, the largest Jewish prostitution organization of the early twentieth century. Liberman's struggle with the Zwi Migdal and her triumphant public victory over her oppressors was political cause celebre in its time. Nora Glickman's study is a new consideration of Liberman's historical significance, examining Liberman's recently released personal correspondence (translated textually from Yiddish) and details of Liberman's previously concealed private life."--BOOK JACKET.

"This collection summarizes the work of key historians of economics and attempts to quantify their impact. Some of these writers such as Friedrich Hayek and Joan Robinson are already assured of their place among the greatest economists of the twentieth century, while the collection also stresses the influence of those still active in shaping our perceptions - the likes of Mark Blaug, Samuel Hollander, and Donald Winch."--Jacket.
