Man and the Organization, part of the acclaimed Time-Life Human Behavior series, chronicles the complex and often uneasy relationship between the individual and the institutions that shape so much of modern existence. Rafael Steinberg, writing alongside the editors of Time-Life Books, presents a richly researched investigation into workplace dynamics, organizational psychology, and the invisible forces of hierarchy, conformity, and ambition that govern professional life. Drawing on behavioral science and real-world case studies, the book illuminates how corporations mold identity, dictate behavior, and quietly negotiate the boundaries between personal freedom and institutional demand.\n\nAuthoritative yet accessible, this volume argues that understanding the organization is, ultimately, an act of self-understanding — a mirror held up to the reader's own professional world. Steinberg's prose is clear and engaging, translating complex psychological and sociological research into vivid, human terms that resonate far beyond the boardroom. A landmark of popular science writing from an era when behavioral science was reshaping how society understood itself, this work leaves the reader asking one unsettling question: who, truly, is in control — the man, or the organization?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210236043483,"sku":"2026200012986-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3ff37dea-2a4a-48ab-aa35-b4ba449019ad.png?v=1788267775","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200012986-secondhand-man-and-the-organization","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
