Review: Synergy or symbiosis?
Rating: 3 out of 5

Are these words still used? While symbiosis is quite common in the natural world, synergy is specific to our species.Read the book (the last third, mostly) and you can decide.Quite recent copyright on the book but the author is apparently relatively old - he remembers Fonz, the self-assured fictional figure on TV quite a few years ago.This is NOT a legal thriller or mystery. It is more like description of tough guys fighting like real men but not killing each other in very large numbers. Other books have frequently more corpses in them.There seems to be a standard Boston square where rich and frequently sinister guys live. This book names the square (I have already forgotten its name) I read recently about in a book by another author.Something like Times Square in New York minus the (former) massage parlors. Actually, more like Gramercy Park.I read the book till 3 am and had to sleep till noon, missing a good part of a sunny California day. Much less pleasant weather in Boston, in reality and in the book.Secondary or tertiary Grisham but passable.
