The corporation in the 21st century : why (almost) everything we are told about business is wrong

Kay, J. A. (John Anderson)2024
Books
For generations, we have defined a corporation as a business run by a capitalist elite, which uses its accumulated wealth to own the means of production and exercise economic power. That is no longer the reality. In the twenty-first century, our most desired goods and services aren't stacked in warehouses or on container ships: they appear on your screen, fit in your pocket or occupy your head. John Kay, one of the greatest economists of our time, describes how the pursuit of shareholder value has destroyed some of the leading companies of the twentieth century.
