| dc.description.abstract | This book is intended for students of organization and management – an important area of study for students of business administration, economics, sociology and organizational psychology. There is no shortage of textbooks on organization and/or management, but most do not include even a short introduction to the various economic approaches to organizations that have been developed in recent decades. This book takes a different approach: it has been designed as an introductory text on the analysis of organizations from an economic perspective. The book has been used successfully as a main text on organization and management courses in many universities and business schools with an emphasis on economic aspects of management (such as fnance, marketing and accounting). In other settings, the book can be used as a supplementary text in conjunction with a more conventional textbook on organization and/or (strategic) management. | en_us |
