edited by George Tesar (Umeå University, Sweden), Sibdas Ghosh (Dominican University of California, USA), Steven W Anderson & Tom Bramorski (University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, USA)

This invaluable book attempts to bridge business management and scientific management practices so as to foster better understanding between the two entities.
