Over the past century, MIT Sloan faculty, students, alumni, and staff have made significant and lasting contributions to the field of management and management education. We pay tribute to those individuals and groups whose ideas and work changed thought, theory, and practice. Taking a fresh look at management education at the Institute and the evolution of MIT Sloan, the text - compiled by a range of experts - adopts a thematic rather than chronological approach, supplemented by an eclectic mix of personal stories and memories from alumni.

On the Trails of the Iroquois Kunst-und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland GmbH

• A comprehensive collection of amazing artwork that gives a in-depth reflection of the cultural history of the Iroquois

For four centuries the Iroquois and their culture have engaged the European imagination and have decisively shaped the popular perception of the Indian. They have been praised as sage orators and prudent diplomats and dreaded for their cruelty in warfare. The pre-eminent position of women in their society made them precursors of feminism, while the men’s hairstyles became a trademark of rebellious youth.
