Reviews
"...a thoroughly researched, crisply written history of one of Germany's most enduring pharmaceutical firms. Kobrak's ongoing critique of the 'cooperative capitalism' that dominated the thinking of most German business executives in the last century is likely to be the most important finding of this study for the business history community." Jeffrey Lewis, The Ohio State University, Canadian Journal of History
"..a valuable contribution to our understanding of business in the Third Reich...this book will stimulate further debate." Enterprise & Society
"Kobrak's study makes its mark not only as a thoughtful and erudite company history, but also as a broader examination of the intersection between national traditions, politics, and the economy." Business History Review
"A valuable starting point for all who are interested in modern German economic history, the role of business in the Third Reich, German business culture and style and the serious problems that issue from them." H-GERMAN
"National Cultures is an intense and thorough scholarly work. The rewards from examining it are considerable..." History
"...explains many interesting aspects of the first one hundred years of Schering's history, especially its organization, and the actions of its managers. The International History Review
