This article presents a list of books related to accounting, business methods, investments and the exchanges. Some of them are as follows: "Chain Stores: Their Management and Operation," by Walter S. Hayword and Percival White. As a whole the volume contains much valuable material, such as has appeared during recent years in trade magazines like "Printers' Ink."Occasionally it resorts to sweeping generalities, as in the first chapter, on principles of chain store operation. In the second chapter, on the chain store field chains are classified according to, first, geographical extent, second policy, third, organization, as one of the most important classifications is between manufacturers' chains and independent retailing chains, which are only casually referred to in this section. "The Organization of Modern Business," by William R. Basset. The broad theme of the book may be said a plea for business building as opposed business curing. The business that business service is the only firm foundation for business success and secondarily, a demonstration of the indispensable part of the industrial engineer in preparing business to serve economically and profitability. |
