This book shows how large American corporations dealt with effectively administering an expanding business. The author summarizes the history of the expansion of the nation's largest industries during the past hundred years and then examines in depth the modern decentralized corporate structure as it was developed independently by four companies - du Pont, General Motors, Standard Oil (New Jersey), and Sears, Roebuck.
