Reviews

I recommend this book for those interested in institutional theory, the sociology of organizations, and the interplay between identity and organizations. The theoretical suggestions are pungent and the empirical materials persuasive of diverse pathways through which we have become institutionalized. - Sajay Samuel, Smeal College of Business, Administrative Science Quarterly
