Book Summary of Technology, Management and Society
How technology, management, and society are interrelated, as seen through the eyes of Peter Drucker.
Timeless: offers a new generation of readers a chance to experience Drucker`s best thinking on management, business, and politics.
Comprehensive: as part of the Harvard Business Press Drucker Library series, this book represents the best of Peter Drucker`s thinking during this period.
The relationship of humans to technology and management is an ever-growing theme in today`s world of ubiquitous mobile devices, constant Internet access, and omnipresent spreadsheets and power points. Fifty years ago Peter Drucker was already at the forefront of these questions, probing the ways in which management and technology struggle with the shared task of making us more productive. His thinking on how management and technology affect quality of life, what efficiency means versus productivity, and whether management can ever be a true science is as relevant today as it was then.
These twelve essays exhibit, as do all Peter Drucker`s writings, crisp reasoning, projection and analysis of short-term realities and examination of long-range goals and possibilities, and a unique voice that makes all these ideas accessible and enjoyable to read. isbn
