It has been called a union card for yuppies. It's a ticket to a six-figure salary and the inside track to wealth and power. It is an MBA from a university like Stanford. And, in this hilarious, sobering, and thought-provoking book by one recent Stanford Business School graduate, you can find how to get it — if you dare.
As his thirtieth birthday loomed and his friends began to acquire such grown-up possessions as homes and European cars, presidential speechwriter Peter Robinson decided to leave the White House and embark on a more lucrative career path. Nothing could have prepared him for business school. From professors who were out of touch to textbooks that didn't speak English, from a fascinating cast of fellow go-getters to the mad scramble for that first great job offer, Peter Robinson chronicles the agony and some ecstasy — in a book that does for business school what Scott Turow's One L did for Harvard Law.
A very funny book about the authors first year at Stanford. It should have covered year two as well.
