This book provides a unique insight into the lives of children born to "organization men," showcasing their evolution from authentic selves to artificial persons. It offers a comparison of their life experiences with those of their parents while exploring occupational rivalry, socioeconomic trends, and the widespread urge to be creative. The book concludes that these children are stout individualists, each in exactly the same way, who express themselves either as humanists or egoists. Recommended for those interested in understanding the impact of organizational culture on individualism and compassion.
