Requests:  0 Summary:  "William H. Whyte's curiosity compelled him to question the status quo--whether helping to make Fortune Magazine essential reading for business leaders, warning of "groupthink" in his bestseller The Organization Man, or standing up for Jane Jacobs as she advocated for the vitality of city life and public space. This compelling biography sheds light on Whyte's bold way of thinking, ripe for rediscovery at a time when we are reshaping our communities into places of opportunity and empowerment for all citizens." -- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 301.092 Whyte Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList
