It was his classic 1946 study of General Motors, The Concept of the Corporation, that launched his career as a business guru. Drucker went on to write more than 30 books advocating the empowerment of employees while questioning unbridled capitalism, big government and Wall Street greed...

Probably best-known in the US for his 1966 cult classic, “Blow-Up,” Antonioni masterminded and created films that left artsy boys and girls everywhere rooted to their seats in gloomy rapture.
