Overview: When the Japanese looked to America for businesses to emulate as they sought to rebuild their economy after World War II, the choice was obvious: IBM, the most successful company in the world. Kevin Maney provides us with this and many other fascinating anecdotes and insights in “The Maverick and His Machine: Thomas Watson, Sr. and the Making of IBM.” Maney’s account of the man who created IBM and shaped its famous culture is extraordinarily well researched and balanced. He brings Watson to life, blemishes and all.
