One of our most esteemed writers on economics and management here gathers 35 essays aimed at instructing America's industrial managers in the problemsand certainly the opportunitiesof our postindustrial society. Drucker may be difficult reading for the novice in this field, but his pieces, arranged in categories such as economics, people, management and the organization, make clear his thesis that today's economic-industrial frontiers are being manned by more-or-less faceless entrepreneurs who are emerging as managers of the big corporations that have gone through such crises as the 1973 oil crunch devised by OPEC and the ensuing inflationary storm, the virtual takeover of the car market by the Japanese, etc. American managers, he shows, have courted disaster by going for "short term" profits, whereas innovation is the ticket for the futureand for workers whose jobs are gone, the need for flexibility is urgent. Drucker shows keen insights into his themes, which range from high-tech innovations, automation, German/Japanese productivity, to the "liberal art" of management, the prophetic "visions" of IBM's Tom Watson, hostile takeovers and much more.

Featuring a new introduction, this classic by management's top guru forecasts the business trends of the next millennium. Peter Drucker's career as a business author spans 60 years, and centers around his three seminal management works: The Frontiers of Management, Managing for the Future, and Managing in a Time of Great Change. The Frontiers of Management is a clear, direct, lively, and comprehensible examination of global trends and management practices. There are chapters dealing with the world economy, hostile takeovers, and the unexpected problems of success. Jobs, younger people, and career gridlock are also covered. Most of all, the man The Wall Street Journal calls "the first of the analytical futurists and the first of the management philosophers" stresses the importance of forethought and of realizing that "change is opportunity" in every branch of executive decision-making.
