March was a founder of organization theory who went beyond rationality and articulated ideas such as a technology of foolishness, garbage can models, a logic of appropriateness, organizational learning, and models of chance and luck.

March was a pioneer in the field of organization theory, with a diverse range of work spanning management, political science, sociology, public administration, and education. His exceptional ability to transcend the prevalent models of rationality in organizational scholarship set him apart. This edited collection pays tribute to March's imaginative and evocative ideas and encourages others to appreciate and explore them further.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter leaving his co-authors Herbert Simon and Richard Cyert at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, where they had established the Carnegie School, Jim March relocated to California in the mid-1960s. This volume showcases and expands upon many of the complements and alternatives to rationality that March articulated after settling at Stanford. These include concepts such as the technology of foolishness, garbage can models of decision-making, a logic of appropriateness, organizational learning, and various models of chance and luck.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe chapters in this volume employ a diverse range of methodological tools, including models, laboratory experiments, and quantitative and qualitative analysis, to enhance our understanding of decision-making processes, actor behavior, organizational dynamics, and the contemplation of human action in terms of truth, beauty, and justice. The volume serves as a celebration of Jim March by his students and colleagues, providing readers with a glimpse into the extraordinary person, poet, sage, and scholar he was.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 596g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 159 x 240 x 24 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781800439795\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":43161929548026,"sku":"9781800439795","price":89.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/b9119b345685f18ee4f4ae9ff6d7bd60.jpg?v=1637034142","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/carnegie-goes-to-california-advancing-and-celebrating-the-work-of-james-g-march","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
