Reviews

"At last the omnipotent Manager faces a serious and worthy opponent in Parker's Against Management. This is a sophisticated polemic that ought to be compulsory reading for all managers, management students and citizens." Keith Grint, Templeton College, Oxford

"I really enjoyed reading this book. It is original; it is provocative; it is scholarly in a positive way. It is extraordinarily well written – lucid as well as witty." Christopher Grey, The Judge Institute of Management, Cambridge
"Parker's capacity to combine solid scholarship with the publicist's flair is invaluable in a field often trapped in hyper-intellectualism." Organization
