Smith (RMIT U. Australia) and Graetz (La Trobe U. Australia) explore the set of assumptions, tacit beliefs, conscious theories, and implementation approaches that govern a change agent's way of
looking at the organizational world and the best approach to introducing change. They survey biological, institutional, resource, systems, cultural, and other approaches; and the concomitant
changing of matters such as theories, plans, organisms, opportunities, minds, everything, and reality. They write for students and scholars of organizational change, but also people who want
some practical insight in how to effect change. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
