I cannot recommend the book highly enough, not just for it's humor, but more for it's accurately humorous views of the convoluted practices of corporate America.

Ross was a solid representative of the rationalist-intuitionist-deontologist axis in twentieth-century ethics; influenced by Prichard and Moore and a first-class Aristotelian scholar to boot, he was a profound and thorough thinker who deserves to be more widely read. For example, his discussion of determinism (and why determinism doesn't undermine ethics) in chapter ten is, to my mind, one of the finest of its kind.
I have occasionally seen Ross's prose style criticized as somewhat plodding and tortuous. I see no foundation for this criticism. Ethical philosophy, at least as Ross himself treated it, is not a flashy affair; like all philosophy, it is a matter of trying to think clearly and well. This Ross does like a master, and readers who prefer clarity and substance in their philosophy will find Ross's style eminently suited to his material. Readers who would rather subject themselves to declamations, rhetoric, and dogmatic asseveration in the service of nothing much are advised to look elsewhere -- to Nietszche, Kierkegaard, Wittgenstein, Sartre, and Ayn Rand, for example.

The book is comprised mainly of a series of iconic photographs taken in the back rooms of museums from around the world and in several Edwardian-era museums, now closed, but still quite haunting in the way they still stand just like the day when they closed up shop years ago. Photographs of cobweb-covered stuffed lion, birds and rhinos in poses they've held for maybe 100 years TOTALLY absorb the viewer. What an eye this Ross guy has! If you can see a copy, you'll want to own it. If you own it, you'll show it to your friends like a trophy.
I hope to find another copy someday, because I nearly wore out the pages on the first one before the water took it first.
