Moneky Business

Not GMAT strategy related but if you want to read a book relating to two guys that went from B-school to Investment banking this is a good read. It describes the funny and dark sides to investment banking.

Happy studying

Hey Hey ... is the book named 'Monkey Business'? or did I miss something?
Thanks
