The Managerial Revolution by James Burnham was one of my textbooks in an economics class I had when I was young. The prof (Manning I think) gave his huge lectures in one of the amphitheater style halls, and it was generally full (as opposed to most such setups). One of my better university experiences, I must say.

I downloaded it. I read some of it, and it looks interesting...I have added it to my Audible Wish List and will download the audio version when I get my credits renewed in a few weeks.
(I have trouble reading now, so I prefer audiobooks. I do have to read one on occasion, I just rented “The Oak and the Calf” but it is not available in an audio version. I really like using my library network, it has about 75 libraries I can rent from by logging into a web site, and if I request it, they send it my local library of choice where I can pick it up. It sends an email when it arrives in my local library.
I checked, nobody in the network has an audio version of “The Managerial Resolution” except Audible, so I will get that in a few weeks.
Thank you for that suggestion.
