This chapter begins by presenting the author's reasons for writing this book on rationality. It argues that Foucault's work provides both an entrée into the analysis of rationality and a template with which to approach its use in organization studies. It then provides an excursus into reason and rationality and its modes of expression and use in organization studies.

Keywords:   rationality, reason, Foucault
