The Tailor of Panama-By John le Carre.

A great study in human nature. It talks about a the events leading up to a fictionalized erroneous invasion of Panama. How the government built up a case to invade based on informants reports.

In the persuit of power, glory and finacial reward ordinary people elborate, embelish and create tales to suit their masters needs. I think every FTC investigator ought to be required to read this one. If you give people promise of money, power, glory and finacial gain they will tell you whatever you want to hear. It works in the board rooms of the Corporate America to the master spys of the CIA. We must question everything when in a position of pwer, it is a responsibility that comes with the job.

U.S. Vs. Microsoft-The Inside Sotry of the Landmark Case. By Joel Brinkley and Steve Lohr of The New York Times.

Throw out the media blur and learn what really happen. This is a good book. About technology and old way of thinking and how the times change faster and the companies are more agile than the laws can keep up with.

I read this book about three months ago, which has been inspirational to me in the past 45 days. It has helped me understand the system and how the government works and why it is imperative to work within the system and move across the unknown untried mine fields carefully but quickly. For one of the fastest moving companies on Earth this was not possible all of the time. For us it will have to be in the future.
