Description du produit

Praise For Damn Right! From the author of the bestselling WARREN BUFFETT SPEAKS "Charlie Munger, whose reputation is deep and wide, based on an extraordinary record of brilliantly successful business strategies, sees things that others don’t. There is a method to his mastery and, through this book, we get a chance to learn about this rare individual."
——MICHAEL EISNER, Chairman and CEO, The Walt Disney Company "Janet Lowe uncovers the iconoclastic genius and subtle charm behind Charlie Munger’s curmudgeonly facade in this richly woven portrait of our era’s heir to Ben Franklin. With a biographer’s detachment, an historian’s thoroughness, and a financial writer’s common sense, Lowe produces a riveting account of the family, personal, and business life of this idiosyncratically complex and endlessly fascinating figure."
——LAWRENCE A. CUNNINGHAM, Cardozo Law School
Author of The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America "For years, Berkshire Hathaway shareholders and investors worldwide (me included) have struggled to learn more about Warren Buffett’s cerebral sidekick. Now we can rest and enjoy reading Janet Lowe’s book about this rare intellectual jewel called Charlie Munger."
——ROBERT G. HAGSTROM, Author of The Warren Buffett Way "Janet Lowe’s unprecedented access to Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett has resulted in a first-class book that investors, academics, and CEOs will find entertaining and highly useful."
——TIMOTHY P. VICK
Money Manager and Author of How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett

Description du produit

"A refreshing antidote to the mumbling modesty that bedevils much of our culture. Trump understands that self-promotion and fame is the best insurance of power already attained. Slater captures this lesson beautifully in this fast-paced, punchy book, packed with interviews, savvy, and insight into one of the phenomena of our age."

-- Paul Levinson, Professor of Communication and Media Studies, Fordham University, and author, Cellphone: The Story of the World's Most Mobile Medium

 "There is no bigger ego that ever walked this earth than Mr. Trump.  Beyond his success as the world's preeminent developer, he's built THE power brand that stands for wealth and success around the world. Slater's book takes us farther inside the workings of the Trump mind than anything else to date."

-Barbara Corcoran, Chairman and Founder, The Corcoran Group,  Author of "If You Don't Have Big Breasts, Put Ribbons On Your Pigtails"

"This is a fascinating look at one of today's more interesting and unusual personalities."

        Steve Wynn , Owner of Wynn Las Vegas 

 

 

"The Donald Trump that I have come to know over the years is not easy to capture in a book.  It was a pleasure to read Robert Slater's well-researched, fascinating look at what makes Trump tick.  Other than reading Trump's own books, there is no better way to find out why Donald is so successful."

 Alan C. Greenberg, Chairman of the Executive Committee, Bear Stearns.   "Donald Trump is one of the most interesting personalities in modern times and Robert Slater is, without question, unparalleled at capturing
the essence of our captains of industry. The combination is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at Donald's charm, his business
intuition, and the richness of his character. A must-read."
Alex Yemenidjian, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios IncFrom Library Journal: 

"SLATER, ROBERT. No Such Thing as Over-Exposure: Inside the Life and Celebrity of Donald Trump. Prentice-Hall. Mar. 2005. c.256p. ISBN 0-13-149734-0. $24.95. BUS It's hard to imagine an ego larger than Donald Trump's. Before veteran business biographer Slater (Jack Welch and the GE Way) had even put pen to paper, Trump threatened to sue him. But after Jack Welch gave Trump the thumbs up on Slater, Trump ushered the writer into his inner sanctum. Based on 100 hours spent jetting around with Trump, as well as 150 interviews with those in the know, this fully authorized biography outlines Trump's deals, business strategies, leadership style, and ability to craft his own image in the media. Trump's legendary status as a real estate and casino developer comes through clearly, and while there are a few moments of humility, like the real estate bust of the early 1990s, it's hard to understand why Slater is so smitten with his subject. Nevertheless, Trump's higher-than-ever profile will ensure this book's popularity in public library business collections."
