On Freedom: Organizational Science Examined PhilosophicallyScientific Freedom, Intellectual Freedom, Moral Freedom, Political Freedom, Spiriitual FreedomA few words about the organization of this book. It follows what can be described as a narrative, in that it moves in stages, each of which combines more than one objective. This is evident, for example, in the first chapter on Scientific Freedom, which endeavors to situate “organization” within a philosophical tradition, the introduction of concepts that have moved organization to science, and the struggle of this science with ethical neutrality—all of which are more confusing to address when treated as separate topics. In an earlier attempt to break this manuscript into topic headings, my impression was that it subtracted from more than added to its clarity. If the narrative, standing alone, could not speak for itself, it probably needed to be reworked. Titles vary with the interest of the intended audience, and I concluded that this book might be of interest to more than one audience—specifically to one interested philosophically in freedom and another interested in a science of organization. - from the author's Preface 3

  • On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...
