“In this clear and compelling book, Jerry Muller shows how our attempts to improve orga nizational outcomes through quantitative mea sures have metastasized into a culture of gaming and manipulation. Through carefully researched case studies on education, healthcare, and compensation, The Tyranny of Metrics makes a convincing case that we need to restore judgment and ethical considerations at a time when shallow quantification threatens the integrity of our most impor tant institutions.” — RAKESH KHURANA, Harvard Business School
