ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the bibliography of Chester I. Barnard, Wilfred Brown, Sir Geoffrey Vickers, E. Wight Bakke. During the Second World War Chester I. Barnard developed and managed the United Service Organizations, Inc. As a practising top manager he had a continuing interest in describing organizational activities and the social and personal relationships between the people involved. Once established, formal organizations must create informal organizations if they are to operate effectively both as a means of communication and cohesion and as a way of protecting the integrity of the individual against domination by the formal organization. As a practising manager in industry and in public service, Barnard combined a thorough knowledge of the workings of organizations with a wide reading of sociology. Brown is less concerned with the nature of a manager's activities as such than with the social organization through which the manager works. The chapter also includes the bibliography of Amitai Etzioni, David Silverman and Michel Foucault.
