This book is without doubt the worst business biography ever to disgrace the binding of a book. Included in the comparison is every paranoid conspiracy rag and company house publications. No where can a reader find such an aggravating waste of time of distinguished or at least well-known men as well as any reader mistaken drawn into reading this undiverting tome.

A comparable book would be a series of interviews with the leading anti-Communists (Vaclav Havel, Pope John Paul II and Lech Walensa) all done by Robin Leach. The shallow and undistinguished questioning and trivial treatment of each is depressing.

The book begins and ends with Mr. Meyers' self-indulgent chattiness. The book is more than half filled with his irrelevant observation and thoughts of the day. The background on any of the interviewees is no more extensive than reading the employing company's press packet and clipped articles in Fortune and Time. Combined with ignorant turns of phrases like "quantum-fold increases" (in context, it is supposed to mean REALLY BIG) and pedestrian comments, the reader can only cull a few observations, Steve Jobs is persuasive, Ross Perot is intense, Jim Clark is a rapid talker. This book is a definite must-miss for any one studying the particular business leaders interviewed.

If you need a book to buck up the self-esteem of an aspiring non-fiction author this is it. If this book can be published, any book can get published.
