杜拉克被譽為有史以來最偉大的管理學思想家，以他撰寫的39 本書聞名於世。2005 年，他與世長辭。那些有幸聆聽過他演講和講課的人們，得以看見他的另一面。杜拉克的演講內容廣泛，或許是其涵蓋的時間範圍，證明了杜拉克悠長而特別多產的一生。本書以每十年做區分，收錄彼得˙杜拉克生前發表的33篇演講的講稿，編者在每一部的開頭提供簡短的評論，讓讀者能對杜拉克思想體系的演進有所了解。這是一本哆啦A 夢式的杜拉克講稿集！哆啦A夢所構築的文創王國，「時光機」應該是跨世代讀者都不陌生的一集，時光機也是我們作為一個人在修復過往悔恨與連結未來期待的重要工具。本書集結了管理宗師彼得．杜拉克一甲子大跨距的時光書寫，以每十年作為一個單元，集結了33 篇講稿譯文而成的專書，有別杜拉克其他以主題式呈現的管理專書。許多杜拉克的思想脈絡，對於杜拉克的忠實讀者而言都不陌生，但從編年史的視角呈現，令讀者讀來別有一番滋味。本書具有三個特徵：（一）時間的穿透力請讀者不要按著順序閱讀，要根據主題閱讀杜拉克在不同時代的思想進化，從中揣摩這位一代宗師如何與時俱進的在同一個主題上優化。提綱挈領地進行系統思考會影響所有工作的效能，閱讀杜拉克的文章就具有這種建立思想框架的收穫。（二）知識的生產力杜拉克說：「管理的精髓是提升知識的生產力。」本書中有兩部論及知識相關的內容，這也是杜拉克留給當代最重要的啟示！（三）社會的影響力杜拉克從不自稱「管理大師」，他最喜愛的稱謂是「社會生態學家」，兼顧社會性與永續性的老人家思想歷久彌新，他的管理哲學沒有營利與非營利的差別。杜拉克說人們難以預測未來，只有開創它。這是穿越各年代智慧層所開發的智慧。本書亦收錄有關教育、健保、政府、非營利組織、世界經濟與全球化的講稿內容，都值得讀者搭乘時光機，穿梭在各時代承載杜拉克思想的文字！
