Críticas

"This book is an absolute tribute to the theorists that helped to shape organizational theory; theory that both explains and can offer solutions for today's complex organizational issues.  The importance of Scott's book cannot be overlooked as it contains lessons that offer explanation and predictions of procedures to drive both an organization's functions and its economic successes." ―Shari Carpenter, Eastern Oregon University (Shari Carpenter 2007-11-29)
