This chapter focuses on the author's set of self-imposed restrictions to be healthy in preparation for the surgery date. The chapter tells how the author managed to attend the synagogue's Rosh Hashanah services, where hundreds of people gathered for worship. It also discusses the CaringBridge site that the author set up to keep her family and friends updated throughout her surgery and recovery. It then highlights her support system: her girlfriends, her weekly walking buddy, and her fellow graduates of the Harvard Business School. Many more friends and family sent emails, messages on CaringBridge, and texts. Finally, the chapter narrates her preparation to leave for Rochester.

© Academy of Management Learning & Education. Although supportive of calls for business schools to learn the lessons of history to address contemporary challenges about their legitimacy and impact, we argue that our ability to learn is limited by the histories we have created. Through contrasting the contested development of the case method of teaching at Harvard Business School and the conventional history of its rise, we argue that this history, which promotes a smooth linear evolution, works against reconceptualizing the role of the business school. To illustrate this, we develop a "counterhistory" of the case method-one that reveals a contested and circuitous path of development-and discuss how recognizing this would encourage us to think differently. This counterhistory provides ameans of stimulating debate and innovative thinking about how business schools can address their legitimacy challenges, and, in doing so, have a more positive impact on society.

Joseph Schumpeter

A biografia de uma figura ilustre como Schumpeter exigia nada menos do que um autor do porte de Thomas McGraw. Um dos mais respeitados historiadores de negócios dos Estados Unidos, professor emérito de história de negócios da Harvard Business School e ganhador do Prêmio Pulitzer, McGraw adiciona à sua lista de trabalhos premiados a excelente biografia, Prophet of innovation: Joseph Schumpeter and creative destruction, a qual, segundo o autor, “possui dois protagonistas: Joseph Alois Schumpeter e o fenômeno da inovação capitalista” (p.ix).
