Seriously, this book is a *MUST-READ* if you've got any curiosities whatsoever about trying to get some "behind-the-news" information on the true goings on in the world of the past 40 years or so.
A true story, first-person narrative of a man who was hired -- seduced?! -- by a large American firm to be an EHM -- Economic Hitman -- this story excels where all others have failed in that it cannot be criticized for being politically biased in one way or another: it is simply a matter of fact account for what happened, how, where, why, when, to whom, etc.
Anyway, give it a look, I think you'd be doing yourself a disservice to not read it. I'm only like 40 pgs into it and its impossible to put down ... and very humbling and ... depressing ... and ... scary.
