Excerpt from The Implications of Cognitive Style for the Implementation of Analytic Models: January, 1974A common topic in management literature over the past few years has been the difference between managers and management scientists, usually in relation to the argument that their association has not been a productive one. A recent article by a disillusioned academic - turned-bureaucrat compares the situation with c.p. Snow's famous notion of the Two Cultures of science and the humanities: Managers and management scientists are operating as two separate cultures, each with its own goals, languages and methods. Effective cooperation and even communication between the two is just about minimal.1 Perhaps this is an overpessimistic viewpoint, but it is one that is expressed very often and by individuals who have substantial experience with the use of analytic methods in management.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
