Editor's review

This Management, authored by Professor Huang Jianchun, is an economics and management textbook published by Chongqing University Press. Current online information shows that its Douban rating has not yet formed a broad consensus, but this does not diminish its value as a rigorously structured and solidly content-rich introductory and teaching reference book on management. Based on the classic management theory framework, the book systematically explains the basic management functions of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling, and interprets them in the context of Chinese local management practice, reflecting the textbook's applicability. In terms of content arrangement, it is logically clear and closely combines cases with theory, making it especially suitable as a companion textbook for university management courses or as systematic introductory reading for self-learners.

In the editor's view, the core strength of this book lies in the completeness of its system and the standardness of its expression. It does not chase overly cutting-edge but unverified management fashions; instead, it solidifies readers' understanding of the basic concepts, principles, and methods of management. This "staying orthodox" approach is especially important for beginners building a stable knowledge framework. The local cases the book may cite can also help readers better connect abstract theories with management phenomena around them. Of course, for senior readers seeking disruptive management ideas or in-depth corporate analysis, the book's depth may be slightly insufficient; it focuses more on imparting a universal, consensus-based body of management knowledge. Overall, this is a reliable and practical foundational management reader that can help readers take their first step toward understanding the world of management.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Lower-year students majoring in management at colleges and universities, for use as a course textbook or supplementary reading
  • Workplace newcomers who wish to systematically self-study basic management knowledge and build a complete theoretical framework
  • Corporate managers who need to review classic management theories and consolidate their grasp of management concepts
  • Non-management majors interested in management practice who hope to gain theoretical guidance

Not a good fit for

  • Senior researchers seeking cutting-edge, disruptive, or highly individualized management ideas
  • Senior executives who need a large number of the latest practical cases and tool models to solve specific problems

Reading tips

  1. Read in conjunction with the review questions at the end of each chapter to consolidate understanding of core concepts
  2. While reading, try to connect the theories with the management practice of Chinese companies or organizations around you
  3. For key chapters such as leadership and motivation, expand your reading with related classic works to deepen understanding

FAQ

What are the features of this book compared with classic foreign management textbooks (such as Robbins' Management)?
While covering the classic management theory framework, this book places more emphasis on interpretation in the context of China's local management situations and cases, and its language and expression are more in line with the habits of Chinese readers, making it suitable as an introductory textbook. Classic foreign textbooks have more international and richer cases and may offer a broader perspective. The two can complement each other.
Is this book suitable for readers with no management experience at all?
Very suitable. The book starts from the basic concepts and functions of management, and its structure progresses from the simple to the deep. It is a systematic introductory reader designed for beginners and can help readers build an overall understanding of management.
How current is this book? Does it reflect the latest management trends?
The book focuses on the classic theories and foundational frameworks of management that have stood the test of time, and these contents have lasting value. It may not cover the latest management trends such as digitalization and agile organizations in depth; readers are advised to supplement their learning of frontier developments through other channels after mastering the basics.

About the author

黄建春 Author

Huang Jianchun: public information is limited, and at present it is known only that one work by this author, Management, is included on this site and classified under examinations. This suggests that the author's writing and publishing focus on the study, organization, and exam-oriented application of management knowledge, aimed at readers who need to systematically grasp the basic concepts and methods of management. Based on the available information, it is not possible to determine the author's nationality, dates of birth and death, educational background, or professional identity, nor whether there are other writings. Understanding of the author and the work therefore rests mainly on this single title, Management, whose content is likely to center on the core framework of management studies and whose format serves exam preparation and self-study, with a style that may emphasize clear organization and explicit key points so that readers can quickly grasp the essentials. Management readers of this exam-oriented kind are typically used in situations such as reviewing university courses or preparing for qualification examinations, helping readers build a knowledge framework within limited time. Huang Jianchun's work can likewise be regarded as reference material for such purposes, while its specific influence and reader reception await further information.
