Professor Hilgert of Washington University in St. Louis reviews the literature of organization theory as it is applicable to business manage ment. Beginning with the concept of the "whole" organization, theory is traced through scientific management and the human relations approach, including recent revisionist concepts, to new thought on organizational planning. The article concludes with a discussion and critique of some quantitative approaches to decision-making and model building
