Sinossi
Un crudele e spietato duello psicologico, una feroce lotta per il potere, un sofisticato intrigo tecnologico e finanziario.
Thomas Sanders è un brillante manager e un tranquillo padre di famiglia. Finché, sulla sua strada, non ritrova una sua ex tanto affascinante quanto spietata, Meredith Johnson, che ha abilmente scalato i vertici della DCT, l’avveniristica azienda di Seattle dove anche lui lavora. Il primo incontro tra i due si conclude nella maniera peggiore: la spregiudicata Meredith lo accusa di averla molestata sessualmente. Per salvarsi, Thomas dovrà ribaltare l’accusa, dimostrando in un’aula di tribunale che è stato lui ad aver subito le molestie. Ma il suo compito sarà reso più difficile da un oscuro intrigo finanziario.

The first thing I can say about this book is that it is dated. At one point there are several paragraphs explaining what CD-ROM is and how it is the up and coming technology. Also, they are developing virtual reality that, while it has as far as I know, gotten as far as it is described in the book,
This started out with way too much technical mumbo-jumbo in the first 150 pages concerning a corporate merger. Then the pace picked up and went right to the heart of the plot. A legal thriller about a sexual harassment case. An interesting story that was well written and a page-turner. A good read a Leggi tutto
“Harassment is about power---the undue exercise of power by a superior over a subordinate.” ― Michael Crichton, Disclosure I would love to see, how this book would be received were it released today. As it was, it did cause a stir way back when it was first released. I thought it was a great book and Leggi tutto
The first time I saw the movie based on the book, it was fabulous. Normally i try to avoid books based on movies if I have already seen the movie. So i gave up many opportunities to buy this book. Finally I couldn't resist when I saw a bargain on this one and I bought it since it was almost 15 years Leggi tutto
Holy fuck is this some misogynistic hot garbage. How this viciously misogynistic drivel became a best seller and pop culture phenomenon is beyond me. This is arguably the single worst book I've ever hate-read, and I have read Dustin Diamond's memoir.
