Article in Business Week magazine on the work and then contributions to management of Peter F. Drucker, specifically his new book. The article chronicles Drucker's professional life at New York University before coming to Claremont Graduate School, and how his managing philosophy has remained consistently about treating management as a social science, taking into account that the emergence of corporate society outside the family unit has only been a recent development. It proceeds to talk about how Drucker's approach has always emphasized the importance and authority of history's example, such as in the rise and fall of prominent companies, in informing management practices in contemporary society.
