More interesting towards the end, with a focus on organisational failures / successes. Good recap of management thinking through the 20th century, while (between the lines) explaining why so many managers today are so fixated on flat structures and decentralisation.

It's actually picking up a bit now. Getting into explanations of behavioural economics more than preaching about the central thesis. Better.

As so often with this kind of book, I'm struggling to work out whether there's any point reading beyond the introductory chapter, where the entire case has been laod out, Readers Digest style.
