Title: Great inside view of unfettered power
Review: I thought this was a fascinating look at how someone who generates lots of revenue is permitted unfettered power over underlings. It sheds light on not only the inner workings of VOGUE, but I suspect Enron, etc. Miranda/Anna can do whatever she wants to anyone because of her ability to generate income for Conde-Nast and all those who depend on Vogue for sales. The "rules" of common decency don't apply to her, either by her own or anyone else's standards because everyone depends on her for money. (I am asuming the book pretty much accurately portrays the authors's experience working for Anna Wintaur at Vogue). More of these kinds of books should be written. Maybe it would serve the salutory effect of curbing the excesses of executives when neither they nor their employer does so.
Is the review positive or negative?
