I wish I had this book several years ago. Thanks to this book I understood some complex "political" movements and tendencies within my organisation. I am now able to better predict changes and foresee the crucial effects of actions and events. The book is a ready to use manual , well structured and organized in a practical order without any "water" at all. I will certainly get back to it in the future.
