Lester C. Thurow is Gordon Y. Billard Professor of Economics and Management at MIT.
"Ed Schein's truly original book recreates the cultural history of
a key institution which made possible the "miracle" of Singapore,
one of East Asia's "little dragons." As far as I know, there is
nothing to compare which what Schein has done in this study.
Through detailed interviewing and full access to Singapore's
Economic Development Board (EDB) records, Schein has vividly
illuminated the workings of the organization which provided
leadership in transforming Singapore into a dynamic industrial city
and a financial center for the world economy."--Lucian W. Pye,
Profesor of Political Scenice, MIT.
"Schein's readers will find in this book a source of inspiration:
the simple fact that good management works. In addition to its
theoretical and practical strengths, Strategic Pragmatism is
particularly relevant for cross-cultural understanding. Western
business managers, corporate executives, government agencies and
international organizations' officers have lacked books whch
clinically analyse the anatomy, physiology and psychology of Asian,
non-Japanese organizations. This book clearly fills part of the
gap."--Philippe Lasserre, Professor of Strategy and Management,
INSEAD Euro Asia Centre
