- Summary
- "This book explores why philosophy matters to organization and why organization matters to philosophy. Drawing on recent efforts in management and organization studies to take philosophy seriously, this volume features contributions from some of the most exciting scholars writing today at the intersection of philosophy and organization. The chapters offer several images of philosophy, engage critically with the way that philosophy might inform organization, and illuminate issues including idleness, aesthetics, singularity, things and language, power and cruelty." "This book will be essential reading for students of philosophy and of business and management, and will be of interest to all those who seek to think seriously about the way their lives are organized."--Jacket.
