Images of Organization: An Essay Review

Abstract

Gareth Morgan's Images of Organization compels attention and invites reflection. Morgan himself describes the work as a treatise on metaphorical thinking which contributes to the theory and practice of organisational analysis (p. 16). Hence it stands directly in the tradition of writers such as Pepper and Kuhn, whose works have included a study of the impact of root metaphors and cognitive paradigms on our understanding of the world.
