"Biting social commentary with a fantastic adventure for an
unruly, often hilarious romp through American culture."
Eugene
Register Guard
This
massive adventure story, spanning oceans and continents and bringing
forth an abundant cast of characters, delivers famously in terms
of thrills, terrors and surprises. Few books can match its breathlessly
sustained energy. But beyond this, it is a sharp satire of manners
and attitudes in the tradition of Gulliver's Travels and
Huckleberry Finn. |

"The more
they told us, the more curious and interested we became. They were
pulling together insights from fields as diverse as architecture
and brain chemistry and applying them to business. They were also
incorporating insights from the best business theories around. They
seemed to have brought it all together in a completely unique three-day
format that sounded challenging, fun, and actually generated solid
work product. Could this be real?"
