Alfred D. Chandler's The Visible Hand remains a vibrant force in contemporary intellectual life. Born in the heady atmosphere of the so-called American Century, when faith in the powers of bureaucratic administration and large technical systems ran high, the work endures as a transcendent analysis of the nature of modern capitalism.
