Shop Management by Frederick Winslow Taylor is a classic management book that focuses on the principles and techniques of industrial management. The book was originally published in 1903 and has since become a seminal work in the field of management. In this book, Taylor outlines his ideas on how to improve the efficiency of industrial production through the use of scientific management techniques. He argues that by breaking down work into its component parts and analyzing each step, managers can identify inefficiencies and develop more efficient methods of production. The book covers a wide range of topics related to industrial management, including the role of the manager, the importance of standardization, the use of time and motion studies, and the importance of training and development. Taylor's ideas were revolutionary at the time of publication, and many of his principles are still used in modern management practices. Shop Management is a valuable resource for anyone interested in industrial management, including managers, supervisors, and students of management. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to readers of all levels of experience. Overall, Shop Management is a must-read for anyone interested in improving the efficiency and productivity of industrial production.It is, however, under piece work that the art of systematic soldiering is thoroughly developed. After a workman has had the price per piece of the work he is doing lowered two or three times as a result of his having worked harder and increased his output, he is likely to entirely lose sight of his employer's side of the case and to become imbued with a grim determination to have no more cuts if soldiering can prevent it. Unfortunately for the character of the workman, soldiering involves a deliberate attempt to mislead and deceive his employer, and thus upright and straight-forward workmen are compelled to become more or less hypocritical.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
