Managers' Reference Book Shelf

Abstract

This survey is mainly concerned with certain basic sources of information aimed at persons occupying administrative and managerial positions in business and industry as well as academicians and students in business schools. It covers management theory and methods, industrial and personnel relations and legislation affecting such relationships, and manpower planning and related data sources. Since much of the current thinking and research on management is disseminated variously as reports and articles in scholarly periodicals, it would be logical to begin with indexing and abstracting sources which enable retrieval of such data. These should not be confused with serial publications whose aim is to provide the subject specialist with means to keep abreast of developments in his field, like Management Contents, Marketing Executive Digest and McGraw‐Hill Management Awareness Program.
