Limiting Yourself?
If you are remotely lacking contentment, happiness or context for your life and want to know how to take immediate action - read this book. If you already know it all, don't!
Need new opinions? This book is for you
I first bought this book by Handy, after that I went bought all the other Handy books as it really make you think about what you do and what will happen in work-provate lives.
Re-fried Mintzberg (but very tasty)
Age of Unreason appeared more than a decade after Mintzberg's "the Structuring of Organizations." In it Mintzberg described the strategic and technical core and the contingent outer-layers of an organization. This laid the theoretical basis for the dissolution of the fully integrated organization. Even so, while Handy's book is not wholly original it is a significant contribution to the literature, as he explored the implication of Mintzberg's concepts to a greater degree than did Mintzberg and then described the implication for the individual. He then prescribed constant self-investment. Nearly two decades later, his advice is still true. I'd say it's full of prescient insights such as that, even if it is heavily derivative of Mintzberg.
