Micklethwait, John.

The company a short history of a revolutionary idea - New York Modern Library 2003 - xxiii, 227 p. ; 20 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [199]-212) and index.

With apologies to Hegel, Marx, and Lenin, the basic unit of modern society is neither the state, nor the commune, nor the party; it is the company. From this bold premise, John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge chart the rise of one of history?s great catalysts for good and evil.
