	DRUCKER, PETER F. Post-capitalist Society New York, Harperbusiness. 1994, Reprints. (ISBN: 0887306616) Paperback, 8 vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall. Politics -- Economics, 250 g; VIII, 232 pages, indexed. In original softcover binding, the only damage to the book is a slight ageing of the edges of the textblock. The author argues that the next revolution after the industrial revolution will be one of management. "A manager is one who "is responsible for the application and performance of knowledge." This change means that we now see knowledge as the essential resource. Land, labour and capital are important chiefly as restraints. Without them even knowledge cannot produce; without them, even management cannot perform. But where there is effective management, that is, application of knowledge to knowledge, we can always obtain the other resources. That knowledge has become the resource, rather than a resource, is what makes our society "post-capitalist." Page 44. Very Good/No Jacket.

	DRUCKER, PETER F. Post-capitalist Society New York, Harperbusiness. 1994, Reprints. (ISBN: 0887306616) Paperback, 8 vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall. Politics -- Economics, 250 g; VIII, 232 pages, indexed. In original softcover binding, the only damage to the book is a slight ageing of the edges of the textblock. The author argues that the next revolution after the industrial revolution will be one of management. "A manager is one who "is responsible for the application and performance of knowledge." This change means that we now see knowledge as the essential resource. Land, labour and capital are important chiefly as restraints. Without them even knowledge cannot produce; without them, even management cannot perform. But where there is effective management, that is, application of knowledge to knowledge, we can always obtain the other resources. That knowledge has become the resource, rather than a resource, is what makes our society "post-capitalist." Page 44. Very Good/No Jacket.
