What is the difference between a cook and chef?

It seems to me from my reading of various books on the subject of kitchens that the chef is the guy that has less to do with the actual cooking and more energy spent on the business end of running a culinary operation and cooks are the dysfunctional and task orientated atlas' that actualize the chefs conceptualizations. What do you think?
