Product Information

The definitive volume on Enron's amazing rise and scandalous fall, from an award-winning team of Fortuneinvestigative reporters. There were dozens of books about Watergate, but only All the President's Mengave readers the full story, with all the drama and nuance and exclusive reporting. And thirty years later, if you're going to read only one book on Watergate, that's still the one. Today, Enron is the biggest business story of our time, and Fortune senior writers Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind are the new Woodward and Bernstein. Remarkably, it was just two years ago that Enron was thought to epitomize a great New Economy company, with its skyrocketing profits and share price. But that was before Fortunepublished an article by McLean that asked a seemingly innocent question: How exactly does Enron make money? From that point on, Enron's house of cards began to crumble. Now, McLean and Elkind have investigated much deeper, to offer the definitive book about the Enron scandal and the fascinating people behind it. Meticulously researched and character driven, Smartest Guys in the Roomtakes the reader deep into Enron's past-and behind the closed doors of private meetings. Drawing on a wide range of unique sources, the book follows Enron's rise from obscurity to the top of the business world to its disastrous demise. It reveals as never before major characters such as Ken Lay, Jeff Skilling, and Andy Fastow, as well as lesser known players like Cliff Baxter and Rebecca Mark. Smartest Guys in the Roomis a story of greed, arrogance, and deceit-a microcosm of all that is wrong with American business today. Above all, it's a fascinating human drama that will prove to be the authoritative account of the Enron scandal.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Smartest Guys in the Room by Bethany McLean, Peter Elki

    I watched the documentary dvd first prior to buying this book. This book is based on the events of Enron bankruptcy. I wanted to read this book to see what other information was available, but wasn't shown in the original dvd. I find this very interesting, so far it talks about the different people and their backgrounds. I am enjoying it, but don't always have time to read. However, when I do get to read, I find myself unable to put it down. I would recommend this to anyone who is curious about how a company manipulated their financials with the help of others including stock analysis, accountants, lawyers, financial companies aka investors. It also talks about the top executives weaknesses and/or insecurities even if they graduated with masters from Harvard Business School.

  • For accounting and audit geeks!

    A great part of history and the story prompted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act!

  • CPA must read

    If you have any interst in the Financial World, this is a must read. It is truly amazing how disorganized this company was. The character development in the book is incredible. After reading it you feel like you were at the company as this all was going on. Now if you have no accounting or finance background the wording in the book will be hard. Overall, a great read!!!!
