Abstract:
This second edition updates Alvesson's significant critique of the economy of persuasion, where organisations and groups assign resources to rhetoric, image, and reputation rather than production of goods and services. It examines critical phenomena such as the knowledge society, consumption, higher education, organisational change, and leadership.
