About This Book

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.
