Trevor J. Bentley

Chapter 1 in Making Cost Control Work, 1978, pp 3-10 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract I remember a discussion with the manager of a small computer centre who argued that to reduce his centre’s waste of paper would be uneconomical because there would no longer be sufficient for waste paper merchants to collect.
