Title: Abstract, repetitive and dated
Review: This is a collection of essays which theorize on business management. It is not a how-to manual for aspiring managers.While there are some interesting points scattered throughout the book it did not impress me overall. First, the essays are quite repetitive because they discuss only a few common topics. Second, the author is not a manager but an academic so the essays are rather vague, abstract and theoretical. Third, while the author gives many real-world business examples and outlines of world history, the 'analyses' are little more than rambling conjecture. Fourth, the author tries to predict the future in many of the essays, but even when he happens to be right, that future is actually Now, so the predictions are dated and irrelevant today.If you want inspiration for business management I would instead recommend autobiographies of some of the great business leaders. They often reveal the principles that made them successful.
