John Murphy (United Kingdom) (2006/09/21): An interesting account of one man's management style and how it impacted both the people that worked for him and also for the wider family. If you are looking for a book on how to create a hierarchical management structure then perhaps this is not for you, although maybe it is as it might persuade you that what you wanted to do is crazy!
