Taylor'un "Bilimsel Yönetimin İlkeleri" İsimli Eseri İntihal Mi? - II



Taylor'un "Bilimsel Yönetimin İlkeleri" İsimli Eseri İntihal Mi? - II

Kayıtlara göre gerekli ödemelerin yapıldığı yayınevindeki belgelerden anlaşılmaktadır. Cooke, sadece yazım ve düzenleme sürecine katkı sağlamıştır ve o dönemde zaten Taylor'un danışmanlık şirketi aracılığı ile yılda anlamlı bir kazanç sağladığı için eser telifinden gelecek miktar çok da önemli gözükmemektedir. 

Bununla birlikte, Taylor'un da intihal ithamlarını boşa çıkarak şekilde çalışma arkadaşının emeğini gözettiği görülmektedir:

Is there another side to this story? On the Industrial Management manuscript he was preparing, Cooke printed this comment: 

. . . this chapter [Chapter 2] is very largely a recital of Mr. Taylor’s personal experiences in the development of scientific management, and as such has been written by himself in the first person.


Cooke told Taylor that he would forgo any profits from Industrial Management, but Taylor responded that he would assign all royalties from The Principles of Scientific Management to Cooke. The archives of Harper & Brothers, Taylor’s publisher, indicate that $3,207.05 in royalties was paid to Cooke from June 1911 (the month The Principles of Scientific Management was published) until the last quarter of 1913.75 According to Dean: 


. . . the royalty money was likely a minor matter to both Taylor and Cooke. Neither of them needed the royalty money, as suggested by the fact that Cooke was making nearly $50,000 a year through
Taylor [from consulting referrals]—a considerable sum considering the time. The royalty payment to Cooke was likely a mere gesture on Taylor’s part for Cooke’s contribution to Taylor’s ‘principles.’’76
A reasonable conclusion is that Cooke contributed to, but did not write, The Principles of Scientific Management.He editedandenrichedTaylor’s talks athishome and duly received royalties for his efforts. It was an arrangement agreed on and fulfilled, indicating the solid relationship that existed between Taylor and Cooke.
