Industrial Man: Businessmen and Business Organizations, edited by W. Lloyd Warner and Norman H. Martin, presents a rigorous and fascinating examination of the American business world through the dual lenses of sociology and anthropology. Drawing on Warner's celebrated career as a University Professor of Behavioral Sciences at Michigan State University, the collection assembles a rich body of research that chronicles the social structures, hierarchies, and human dynamics that underpin corporate life in mid-twentieth-century America.\n\nThe work argues that business organizations are not merely economic entities but deeply human institutions shaped by culture, class, and ambition — a perspective that was genuinely groundbreaking for its era. Martin's expertise in Business Administration lends the volume a practical grounding that balances Warner's more theoretical anthropological framework, resulting in a text that speaks to both the scholar and the practitioner. Published by the prestigious Harper \u0026amp; Brothers of New York, this volume stands as an enduring landmark in organizational studies, raising questions about power, identity, and social mobility that remain as provocative and unresolved today as when they were first posed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210267173083,"sku":"2026200014747-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e815e584-6c91-4230-ab16-80e428062a6b.png?v=1788268398","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014747-secondhand-industrial-man-businessmen-and-business-organizations","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
