Publisher's Synopsis
Too Much Efficiency is a book written by E. J. Rath and published in 1917. It is a critique of the growing trend towards efficiency in industrial and organizational management during the early 20th century. The author argues that while efficiency is important, it should not come at the expense of other values such as creativity, innovation, and individuality. Rath contends that too much emphasis on efficiency can lead to dehumanization and a loss of meaning in work. He also warns against the dangers of a narrow focus on short-term goals and profit at the expense of long-term sustainability and social responsibility. The book is a thought-provoking analysis of the potential pitfalls of the efficiency movement and a call for a more balanced approach to management and work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
