Editorial Review
Since the first edition of this book in 1954, it was considered as the first book to give a big picture of management and a typical road map to view the modern business. It created the main principles, concepts, and facts about modern management practices. Although this book was written more than 60 years ago, one feels that almost all of Peter Drucker's thoughts are still relevant to this day. Along the five parts of the book, Peter Drucker is giving us a lot of significant and practical tools and techniques which are very essential for students of business schools and very inspiring for managers and professionals.
