One of the most important developments in the social sciences in the last 20 years is the increasing recognition of the importance of institutional structures. This understanding is vital, for matters ranging from economic development to business efficiency. The more perceptive commentators recognise that the understanding of institutions and organisations also involves an appraisal of human nature, as situated in and moulded by these structures. Sigmund Wagner-Tsukamoto is one of this group. In a fresh and stimulating institutional analysis, he focuses on the key works of Frederick W. Taylor, Herbert A. Simon and Oliver E. Williamson. These important but contrasting approaches create a vital zone of enquiry, within which the author brings an engaging and interdisciplinary perspective. The result is a book that should be of interest for all social scientists wishing to understand the interactions between individuals and organisations
