He brings us tales from under the edge which enmire us in the nether side of modernist organization.
By looking backwards deep into the history of Western societies, and sideways across the broad domain of social and cult

An inspiring and very well written book about organizations
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Pandemonium is a book about organizations and the threat of linearity. The book itself is non-linearily written, it reads very well, and inspires to rethinking of: organizations, science, writing, and life itself... Anyone who doubts organizing is interesting -- read this one!
