While I can’t comment on the content of the book as I am yet to read it, my “Printed by Amazon” version came today with numerous printing errors. For several pages single sentences have been printed vertically down a single page, making it hard to read and breaking the flow of the book.

This is a classic book which launched new practises in human resource management. Like many other tools, the principles outlined in the book can be used productively or unproductively. The lessons and the tools are there; how they are used depends on the maturity and ethics of the manager.

Quick delivery – useful for studies.

If you are buying this you know what to expect. No less dry than when it was written but still a referred work. Readable on Kindle but will remain with you only as a reference work.

It is a great book. It is much better than reading information about his theories from journals. A lot of the journals written on him are biased, a lot of them mainly just don’t take into account the time that the book was written.
It is definitely a must have book for academics, although some of his ideas are a little bit dated.

This book was bought as additional reading for Ergonomic studies.
Simply so much is written quoted and discussed about Taylor that his message is lost amongst the volume of associated comment. This book is worth buying just to read his original principles in his prose. The message is his, but after reading you can better decide on your own interpretation of his work and marry it to the considerable comment already available.

Been reading it and it had a lot of information compressed in this little book.
