BTW, after a conversation with Eliezer at the weekend, I have just asked my employers to buy this book.

What do your employers do, that the book is relevant there? What they (assuming the CV on your web site is up to date) say about themselves on their web site is curiously unspecific.

I work for a computer consultancy; we do all sorts of things. The book is relevant because while we generally enjoy excellent relations with all our clients, it can sometimes happen that they muck us about, for example on rates.
