CHOICE Review

The authors examine the theoretical and practical issues relating to large-scale organizational change. Strategies are presented that encourage the kinds of participation, communications, and leadership essential for implementing lasting system-wide change. In addition to the section on strategies, other major sections address the impact of both people and the environment on proposed organizational change. The authors define their work as a hybrid among books on organizational change, combining features of traditional general treatments with books that describe particular approaches to organizational change. This work will be most useful to reader's with a knowledge of both organizational change and organizational behavior. Upper-division and graduate collections. -E.
