MBA

Why is so much of the world MBA? When business school hot shot Ben Stillman is fired, he has the chance to find out. Ben jumps head first into turning his former business school into world-class madrassa of capitalism. Ben has 10 days to rescue the launch of its spectacular glass tower, and his own career—as well as confront terrorist plots, undercover police, the extravagant demands of the super-rich, and the only woman who can save him from this madness. A satirical thriller, a love story, and a wry look at modern management ideology all rolled into one.
