Summary: The enthusiasm with which the previous editions of this book have been greeted by colleagues, students, and practicing managers far exceeded our initial expectations. The contrast between organizational life as presented in academic texts and the "reality" that emerge from the essentially non-academic text literature from which so many of our selections are drawn has provided a rich and flexible basis for teaching.
