The World is small indeed!
Over the last couple of days, I've been watching the archives of 'Uncommon Knowledge', an American Talk Show hosted by one Peter Robinson. Most shows are very insightful and conducted with the minimum of rhetoric/excess.
Much to my surprise, upon checking the profile of the host, I discovered today that this chap Peter Robinson, a fellow at the Hoover institution, is none other than the author of the book - Snapshots from Hell, a bestseller most MBAs would need no introduction to (I haven't read it though).
Well, well, well...
Here are the archives, btw
PS: Another tidbit. Peter Robinson was also Ronald Reagan's speechwriter before joining Bschool. The immortal line - 'Mr.Gorbechev, Tear down this wall' was his work ;)
