The year was 1867, the year of the Second Reform Bill, which virtually established the principle of political democracy in England and made plain how much of the old way of doing things would have to be given up. This was the year of the publication of Culture and Anarchy, in which, to a middle class “besotted with business,” Matthew Arnold proposed as a means of salvation, as a means, indeed, of survival, the knowledge of the best that has been thought and said in the world.

Society comprised of three kinds of people:

Barbarians (the aristocracy) – with their high spirit, serenity and distinguished manners and their

inaccessibility to ideas.

Philistines (the great middle class) – the stronghold of religious nonconformity, with plenty of energy and morality but insufficient “sweetness and light.”

Populace (the masses) – still raw and blind.

Arnold saw in the Philistines the key to the whole position; they were now the most influential sectionof society; their strength was the nation’s strength,

their crudeness its crudeness: Educate and humanizethe Philistines, therefore. Arnold saw in the idea of“the State,” and not in any one class of society, the true organ and repository of the nation’s collective

“best self.”

The following pages comprise a list of books and their authors and publishers. These books are about business or related to business. They are listed chronologically from past to present. This is a representative list and it is far from all-inclusive; but nonetheless, it is an attempt at defining the best business books of all time. The effort in creating this list is dedicated to all the men and women who have ever used the written word to try to improve the human condition, to advance the furtherance of economics and the social sciences, and to increase the efficiency, effectiveness, and humanization of business.

I am not unaware that many have held the opinion that events are controlled by fortune and by God in such a way that the

prudence of men cannot modify them, indeed, that men have no influence whatsoever. Because of this they would conclude that there is no point sweating over things, but that one should

submit to the rulings of chance…Some-times, when thinking of this, I have myself inclined to this same opinion. Nonetheless,

because free choice cannot be ruled out,

Niccolo Machiavelli. Il principe (The Prince (ed. W. K. Marriott) (London: UK: J. M. Dent, 1908)). (Orig. 1513).

1513





I believe that it is probably true that fortune is the arbiter of half the things we do, leaving the other half or so to be controlled by

ourselves…


1513





Thus it happens that two men, working in different ways, can achieve the same end, and of two men working in the same way one gets

what he wants and the other does not. This also explains why prosperity is ephemeral; because if a man behaves with patience and

circumspection and the time and circumstances are such that this method is called for, he will prosper; but if time and circumstances change he will be ruined because he does not change his policy…

Adam Smith. An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth ofNations (New York, NY: The Modern Library, 1937). (Orig. 1776).

1762

Adam Smith was, in his own day and his own way somethingof a revolutionary. His doctrine revolutionized European society as surely as Marx’s in a later epoch. He was, on the economic side, the philosopher of the capitalist revolution, as John Locke

was its philosopher on the political side.

1762

Since a natural order exists whereby the enlightened selfishness of all men adds up to the maximum good of society, since there is a “divine hand” (“invisible hand”) which guides each man in

pursuing his own gain to contribute to the social welfare, it must follow that government is superfluous except to preserve order

and perform routine functions.

We recognize this, of course, as the unregulated and individualistic capitalist economy – what Thomas Carlyle has unforgettably

termed “anarchy plus a constable.”

1762

The colonists carry with them a knowledge of agriculture and of otheruseful arts….They carry out with them too the habit of

subordination, some notion of the regular government which takes place in their own country, of the system of laws which

support it, and of a regular administration of justice; and they naturally establish something of the same kind in the new settlement.

1776Top 50






1762

Every colonist gets more land than he can possibly cultivate. He has no rent, and scarce any taxes to pay….He has every motive

to render as great as possible a produce, which is thus to be almost entirely his own….He is eager, therefore, to collect laborers

and to reward them with the most liberal wages…those laborers leave and become landlords themselves and to reward, with equal

liberality, other laborers, who soon leave them for the same reason….

1776Top 50






1762

The liberal reward of labor encourages marriage. The children…are well fed and properly taken care of, and when they are grown up,

the value of their labour greatly overpays their maintenance, (which) enables them to establish themselves in the same manner as their

fathers did before them.

1821





Hegel’s conception of reality sought to relate and unify man andnature, spirit and matter, human and divine, time and eternity. At the foundation of Hegel’s thought was his understanding of dialectic, according to which all things unfold in a continuing evolutionary process whereby every state of being inevitably brings forth its opposite. The interaction between these opposites then generates a third stage in which the opposites are integrated – at once overcome and fulfilled – in a richer and higher synthesis, which in turn becomes the basis for another process of opposition and synthesis.

Children are potentially free and their life directly embodies nothing save potential freedom. Consequently they are not things and cannot

be the property either of their parents or others. In respect of his relation to the family, the child’s education has the positive aim of

instilling ethical principles into him in the form of an immediate feelingfor which differences are not yet explicit, so that thus equipped withthe foundation of an ethical life, his heart may live its early years in

love, trust, and obedience.


1821





In respect of the same relation, this education has the negative aimof raising children out of the instinctive, physical level on which

they are originally, to self-subsistence and freedom of personalityand so to the level on which they have power to leave the natural

unity of the family.

First. They develop a science for each element of a man’s work, which replaces the old rule-of-thumb method.

Second. They scientifically select and then train, teach, and develop the workman, whereas in the past he chose his own work and trainedhimself as best he could.

Third. They heartily cooperate with the men so as to insure all of the work being done in accordance with the principles of the science which has been developed.

Fourth. There is an almost equal division of the work and the responsibility between the management and the workmen. The management take over all work for which they are better fitted than the workmen, while in the past almost all of the work and the greater part of the responsibility were thrown upon the men….

To summarize: Under the management of “initiative and incentive”practically the whole problem is “up to the workman,” while under scientific management fully one-half of the problem is “up to themanagement.”

Mary Parker Follett. Creative Experience (London and New York, NY: Longmans, Green, 1924).


It now seems clear that we must look for purpose within the processitself. We see experience as an interplay of forces, as the activity

of relating leading through fresh relatings to a new activity, not from purpose to deed and deed to purpose with a fatal gap between, as if life moved like the jerks of mechanical toys with

only an external wire-puller to account for the jerks, or a too mysterious psychic energy.

Mary Parker Follett. Creative Experience (London and New York, NY: Longmans, Green, 1924).


What we possess always creates the possibilities of freshsatisfactions. The need comes as need only when the possible

satisfaction of need is already there. There is no gap in the process. The automobile does not satisfy wants only, it creates wants….

The automobile was not invented to solve the farmers’ problems. The purpose in front will always mislead us. Psychology now gives

us end as moment in process.

The most strategic factor in human cooperation is executive capacity.In the nature of the physical world and of the social world as well,

opportunity and ideals outrun the immediate motives and interest andthe practical abilities that are required of leaders. The accumulation

of capital, the invention of processes, the innovations of human relationships that effective and efficient cooperation need as a

preliminary necessity, call for special abilities in the technologies of materials, physical forces, economic systems, and organization arts.

Organizations endure, however, in proportion to the breadth of the morality by which they are governed. This is only to say that

First came the design – not of machines but of the plane as an assembly of identical and interchangeable parts.

Then came the analysis of each part as a problem in mass production, as something produced in a sequence of elementary and basic operations, performable fast and accurately by an unskilled or semi-skilled worker.

War Production - WWII




Next came the task of merging the production of each part into a plant producing the whole – a task involving 3 distinct problems of organization:

A problem of people working as members of a team to a common end.

A problem of technical processes. A problem of materials-flow.

Finally came the job of training thousands of new workers and hundreds of new supervisors, many of whom had never seen the inside of a plant before.


Top 101946





On those four pillars rested every achievement of our war production: design of the final product as a composite of

interchangeable parts; design of the production of each part as a series of

simple repetitive operations; design of a plant to integrate human labor, machines

and materials into one whole; and training in skills and in teamwork.

“All the greatest and most important problems of life are fundamentally insoluble…They can never be solved but

only outgrown. This “outgrowing” proves on further investigation to require a new level of consciousness…

They are not solved logically on their own terms, but fade when confronted with a new and stronger life force.”

Carl Jung




The ingenuity and perseverance of industrial management in the pursuit of economic ends have changed many scientific

and technological dreams into commonplace realities…

…It is now becoming clear that the application of these same talents to the human side of enterprise will not only

enhance substantially these materialistic achievements but will bring us

one step closer to “the good society.” Shall we get on with the job?

1. Management is responsible for organizing the elements of productive enterprise – money, materials, equipment, people – in the interest of economic ends.

2. People are not by nature passive or resistant to organizationalneeds. They have become so as a result of experience in organizations.

3. The motivation, the potential for development, the capacity for assuming responsibility, the readiness to direct behavior toward organizational goals are all present in people. Management doesnot put them there. It is a responsibility of management to makeit possible for people to recognize and develop these human characteristics for themselves.

1) The expenditure of physical and mental effort in work is as natural as play or rest.

2) External control and the threat of punishment are not the only means for bringing about effort toward organizational objectives. Man will exercise self-direction and self-control in the service of objectives to which he is committed.

3) Commitment to objectives is a function of the rewards associated with their achievement.

4) The average human being learns, under proper conditions, not only to accept but to seek responsibility.

5) The capacity to exercise a relatively high degree of imagination, ingenuity, and creativity in the solution of organizational problems is widely, not narrowly, distributed in the population.

6) Under the conditions of modern industrial life, the intellectual potentialities of the average human being are only partially utilized.

Yet, there is a world of difference between compliance and commitment. The committed person brings an energy, passion, and excitement that cannot be generated if you are only compliant, even

genuinely compliant. The committed person doesn’t play by “the rules of the game.” He is responsible for the game. If the rules of the

game stand in the way of achieving the vision, he will find ways to change the rules. A group of people truly committed to a common

vision is an awesome force.

Upward of 200 million people have been lifted out of poverty in Chinaover the last two decades. The world has never seen change of that

rapidity on that scale. By some estimates, China is already the second-largest economy in the world; and, if current trends continue,its economy will rival that of the United States in size before the next

two decades are out….

How will a political transition come about in a country as big and still as poor as China, and how will authority and cohesion be maintainedduring that period? Time is offered as one answer – enough time toallow democracy to continue to build up from the local level, enough

time to allow incomes to reach the levels that have led to greater political participation in other, albeit much smaller, Asian countries.No matter what the political outcome, China is destined to be thedominating economic and political force in the region in the nextcentury, and of course one of the most important in the global

economy.

Stop managing, start leading. Cultivate managers who share your vision. Face reality, then act decisively. Be simple, be consistent, and hammer

your message home. Don’t focus on the numbers.

Plagiarize – it’s legitimate: create a learning culture. Get rid of the managers, get rid of the bureaucracy. Be lean and agile like a small company. Tear down the boundaries. Speed, simplicity, and self-confidence. Make quality the job of every employee.

Business, like all other human activities, is conditioned by the technology available at the time. Looking back into history, we can

see major stages of development: writing, mail, semaphore, telegraph, telephone, movies, radio, television, communications

satellite, fax, video, email, DVD.Future historians will be unable to imagine how the human race occupied its time, in the long, empty ages before movies and TV.

What other forms of communications or entertainment can possibly be imagined? I’m glad you asked me that…

Culture and AnarchyDoes this

anarchy of writers and

books form a culture of its

own?

Is there a level of culture (a

connoisseurshipif you will) that

can be objectively

ascertained?

Is it the best of the best?
