Overview

Ball Buster? is the second edition (the original title was Class Struggle is the Name of the Game) of a straight forward business adventure story, with enough ups, downs, victories, defeats, and suspense to fill a Hitchcock film. It is also an extremely humorous autobiography, full of irony and satire, and sprinkled with scholarly insights, a critical view of business as seen from the inside, and a case study of the Marxist theory of embodiment, which states that the role you play in society is decisive in determining what kind of person you are.
