I read this in a few days when I was at Julia's. It was good, in the same vein as his other books. An easy read but enjoyable.

An entertaining history of the management consulting profession. Many people blame consultants for all that is wrong in the business world, but while this book certainly doesn't paint a flattering picture, it reveals the depth of contribution that has been made to in many ways improving our competitive position in the world. The book did not change my perception of the management consulting industry, which I am part of. I read many, many business/management books. Each time, I come away agreeing with the concepts discussed, seeing ways to apply the thinking. The problem arises when one tries to apply a singular concept to every situation. The problems that arise are discussed in this book. The role of the management consultant (in my eyes) is not to apply specific tools to a company's problem, but to construct a framework that allows a company's leadership to see the organization in a new way, paving the way for improvement. The real value a consultant brings to the table is that outsider's perspective - not specific magic bullets. Of note, you will become comfortable with a new phrase after reading this book - Greater Taylorism.
