TAYLOR, Frederick Winslow (1856-1915). The principles of scientific management. London & New York: Harper & Brothers, 1911.
8o (227 x 150 mm). Original dark green cloth, gilt-lettered spine.
FIRST EDITION. Printed for "confidential circulation among the members of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers with the compliments of the author", after it was read to the society as a lecture in January 1910. Taylor's "scientific management" was effectively the practice of time and motion studies of the working day, with the intention of streamlining the production process. To this end Taylor studied not only factory conditions and working methods, but also machinery and tools, and he himself designed a new method of tempering tool steel which enabled quicker metal-cutting. "The main lines of approach to increased efficiency were standardizing processes and machines, time and motion study, and payment by results, all of which have been welcomed in the U.S.S.R., where 'Stakhanovism' is virtually 'Taylorism' renamed, and in Germany, where the Principles was translated and achieved a wide circulation. The adoption of his methods there contributed notably to the speedy recovery of German production after the First World War. His methods were anathema to trade unionists almost everywhere else" (PMM 403). Norman 2059.
