Circle of Greed
Author: Patrick Dillon
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0767929950
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
Circle of Greed is the epic story of the rise and fall of Bill Lerach, once the leading class action lawyer in America and now a convicted felon. For more than two decades, Lerach threatened, shook down and sued top Fortune 500 companies, including Disney, Apple, Time Warner, and—most famously—Enron. Now, the man who brought corporate moguls to their knees has fallen prey to the same corrupt impulses of his enemies, and is paying the price by serving time in federal prison. If there was ever a modern Greek tragedy about a man and his times, about corporate arrogance and illusions and the scorched-earth tactics to not only counteract corporate America but to beat it at its own game, Bill Lerach's story is it.

Everyday Greed: Analysis and Appraisal
Author: Michael S. Pritchard
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030700879
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
This collection examines how greed should be understood and appraised. Roundly condemned by virtually all religions, greed receives mixed appraisals in the domains of business and economics. The volume examines these mixed appraisals and how they fare in light of their implications for greed in our everyday world. Greed in children is uniformly criticized by parents, other adults, and even children’s peers. However, in adulthood, greed is commended by some as essential to profit-seeking in business and for offering the greatest promise in promoting economic prosperity for everyone. Those who advocate a more permissive position on greed in the adult world typically concede that some constraints on greed are needed. However, the supporting literature offers little analysis of what greed is (as distinct from, for example, the effort to meet modest needs, or the pursuit of ordinary self-interested ends). It offers little clarification of what sorts of constraints on greed are needed. Nor is careful attention given to difficulties children might have in making a transition without moral loss from regarding greed as inappropriate to its later qualified acceptance. Through a secular approach, this book attempts to make significant inroads in remedying these shortcomings.

Chaotic Yesterdays of Impeccable Greed
Author: Seth Kinstle
Publisher: Seth Kinstle
ISBN:
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
People get a little greedier everyday. They go crazy and things happen that shouldn't. Everyone loses their mind over the simplest of luxuries. So who am I to dwindle in the darkness as if I don't owe the world a little disgust? I was never normal, but nothing is ever about me, it's about money. It's about the thrill that pulses through your veins when you're about to show everyone your worth. You might lose your mind, but it's just part of the game. The city doesn't care who you are, it swallows all in its wake. Your memories will be taken under as you examine the treacherous path of a bloody mess you left behind. Everyone is the same, it's why we try so hard to be different. So pull up a stepping stool as we disappear into the formally unreachable cabinet in your kitchen to take a peek at your red soaked cash. It's time to face your chaotic yesterdays of impeccable greed.

Greed, Inc.
Author: Wade Rowland
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1628722045
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
Why is it that multinational drug companies hide or falsify unfavorable results? Why do automakers knowingly sell us unsafe cars? Why is big business allowed to poison our environment—and us? Why is our food so unhealthy, with obesity growing at such an alarming rate? Why are we working such long hours and enjoying life less? This timely and important book places the blame for much of what ails contemporary society squarely on one institution: the modern publicly traded corporation, which enjoys the legal status of an individual but does not seem bound by the same legal and moral responsibilities, or, in fact, by its nature that is brutally and implacably selfish. While recognizing the positive contributions corporations have made over the past two centuries to science, technology, and medicine, Rowland examines the greed at the core of it all and pinpoints what went wrong and how we can free ourselves from the “Greed is good” syndrome.
