<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>My Years with General Motors</i> became an instant bestseller when it was first published in 1963. It has since been used as a manual for managers, offering personal glimpses into the practice of the discipline of management by the man who perfected it.
