Title: McLean And Elkind Do A Complex Tale Justice
Review: They're to be commended for being able to reduce accounting trickery so complex that I'm not entirely sure those involved knew what was going on, into terms that a layman can understand. I don't have a Harvard MBA, nor do I have any experience as a nacent energy trader, and while I think I understood what I was reading, I'd be hard-pressed to try to explain it. This is not the fault of either author, however. The book is highly readable and no one could have made complete and absolute sense of something designed to be so inscrutable.I appreciate too their decision to look away from some the galling greed and hubris on the part of the Eneron corporate culture (though a bit sneaks in here and there--it's hard to tell this tale without mentioning it at least in passing) and toward the chicanery that was involved in creating "the world's greatest company." Even at the end, I've got a hard time deciding what was real and what was an illusion.
