Informative Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book was ideal for the doctoral class I just completed. The book thoroughly explained the salient points and provided useful information for further doctoral work. Although the book was scholarly, it was an easy and pleasant read. I recommend this book for anyone who wants a keener understanding of the organization as a system
Excellent Work

This is an excellent book. The author does a fantastic job of explaining organizational theory from a conceptual perspective. The book does not spend a lot of time discussing research methodology. The book does a great job of presenting information in a form that a manager can use in evaluating various approaches to organizational behavior issues. This volume will certainly remain an important part of my toolkit!
Great book!!

As a novice to organization theory, I am reading Hal Rainey's book on public organizations and this book. This book is well written and gives balanced points of view over various theories and perspectives in the organization studies. This book is adopted as required readings in many PhD courses on organization theory.
