Engages with an important aspect of contemporary culture (movies, novels, biographies, histories about business) in a thoughtful, rigorous, and accessible way
Demonstrates that how we as a society think about business is strongly influenced by the way it is represented in these texts, and that this influences key personal influences
Examines texts' influence on social discourse and the circulation and reproduction within popular culture of the narrative structures they instantiate
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"My read of this short text (78 pages) is that the authors have most certainly been successful on the first front and have taken the field another valuable step toward the second. . this book has much to recommend. Analyzing popular culture narratives, this research effectively describes the narratives of three business industries. It does this quite well." (Michael D. Jones, Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, December, 10, 2018)
