Excerpt from Business Methods and the War
Class conducted in this School during the past seven years shows, no doubt, that military men can improve their efficiency by a study of civilian methods, and the wonderful success with which Transport and Supply have been managed during the present War shows this to be the case. It occurs to me, however, that quite possibly civilians might, with equal advantage, make some study of the soldier's methods of handling business, and, accordingly, in this short course of lectures which I have undertaken, I propose to start by making some comparison of military and civilian methods of business organisation, with a view to seeing whether this new point of view may not suggest some ideas that are well worth following up in the interests of business efficiency.

Excerpt from Business Methods and the War
In the early part of the present year I delivered four lectures on "Business Methods and the War" at the London School of Economics and Political Science. These lectures are now reproduced in book form. They must not be regarded as an attempt to deal exhaustively with the subject, but rather in the light of a few suggestions as to how business men might, with great advantage to themselves, take to heart such lessons as the war may have to teach them. After all, war is a business, and business - like life - is one long battle. Accordingly, there should be something for the business man to learn from a study of present conditions. That the British business man has still much to learn, I have endeavoured to suggest as gently as I can: that he is not unteachable is my profound belief, as well as my confident hope.
