I found this little gem a treat: full of bits of wisdom from a professor gifted with eloquence and brevity; it's 109 pages pack more useful information for managers, decision makers and others than many a so-called business book. Not only that, the style of writing is witty, making it an easy read between meetings. Situations are recognisable, and yet full of in-depth knowledge.
My manager gave it to me: brave, but if only more did the same... Recommended.

Northcote Parkinson is a GENIUS especially considering that this book was first published in 1957 and it is still a topical book. A humorous and true picture of our society.
Listmania!
