Reviews:
Karaoke Capitalism
Rating: ****** (Decent)
As their first book really stank, I wasn't having very big hopes for this book. I must admit that they have improved!
It still is a book without any real recommendations (except some feel-good ones), but at least they manages to explain in a convincing way a lot of the modern business world. And they do it very entertaining, this way around.
It is in no way a classic, but it is worth having read.
