Daniel A. Wren and Arthur G. Bedeian:

The Evolution of Management Thought is divided into four sections—not planning, organizing, leading, and controlling—but “Early Management Thought,” “The Scientific Management Era,” “The Social Person Era,” and “The Modern Era.” “Early Management Thought” encompasses the book's first six chapters.
