I'v seen the post about I-H and what tractor was the down fall, or what ever the reason, and saw that some of you had read a book called A CORPORATE TRAGEDY. How long has this book bin out? Im not much of a reader but if its I-h then i would like to read it, it sounds interesting.
Would i still be able to get this book from a book store?

Our local public library has it. I borrowed it and read it last fall - a bit dry sometimes but still a very interesting read. An excellent study on how corporate arrogance and myopia brought down one of the largest corporations in America.

The book is maybe 10-15 tears old, written as a case study for the Harvard Business School. Very fascinating reading. I think the hardcover edition is out of print, and used ones are available, (but pricey) at such places as A m a z o n . c o m.

I believe B i n d e r b o o k s . c o m has softcover reprints.

Farmallkid: Quite a few of the libraries around SW Ontario have this book. If your local library doesn't have it they should be able to come up with in the system. I know my wife gets books that way all the time. When she asks for a certain book it may be in Kent Co. just for example. Sometimes takes a week or two.
