description: An intriguing, allegorical depiction of the cultural mechanisms of organizational life, this book reveals the psychological processes and social mores at work within corporate organizations through fictional characters representing corporate types (``the secretary,'' ``the universal subordinate,'' ``the universal executive,'' etc.) Its readable, instructive approach goes beyond the usual technical/rational analysis of books on organizational behavior, giving a behind-the-scenes look at corporate life.
