Description

"Bloodsport is the story of how the mania for corporate deals and mergers
all began ... how power lawyers Joe Flom and Marty Lipton, major Wall
Street players Felix Rohatyn and Bruce Wasserstein, prominent jurists, and
shrewd ideologues provided the ... energy that drove the corporate elite
into a less cozy Hobbesian world ... with total dollar volume in the
trillions. ... Four questions whose force remains undiminished: Are
shareholders the "owners"? Should control be exerted by autonomous CEOs or
is [that] illegitimate and inefficient? Is the primary purpose of
corporations to generate jobs and create prosperity for the masses and the
nation?, or is it simply to maximize the wealth of shareholders?"--
