Description
This is a letter by Mel Hurni for Peter Drucker. It is a critique of Drucker's general thesis for "Economic Anticipation for Entrepreneurial Decisions". Hurni assumes that the facts used in the piece are correct, and focuses his comments on the arguments derived from those facts. He states that for the "Xanadu" Drucker created, the definition of a critical factor is too simple. He also outlines questions that arise and the holes in certain arguments.
