About the Author
Lewis Pinault is vice president of consumer industries at one of the world's leading computer services and outsourcing firms, and he is a research practitioner with the Imagination Lab Foundation established by the LEGO Group. Consulting Demons, Pinault's notorious firsthand, partner-level account of the too-often unscrupulous workings of the consulting industry, led to his intensive exploration and development of new and better means of client engagement and consumer understanding. An MIT graduate, Juris Doctor, Fulbright Scholar and NASA Space Grant Fellow, Pinault combines a unique mix of science and policy perception in developing his exceptional "fun with a purpose" perspective on consumers, play and technology. He lives in London.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. "What is a Management Consultant?" the prized MBA candidate asked. "The best of us--and that could be you--know without ever needing to ask. W e're a Breed Apart," the consultant observed, arrogance and irony in perfec t balance. "Okay, so that could be me, but what does that mean?" the MBA persisted.
