Dear WA Friends:

 Some of you have been kind enough to inquire more about my upcoming book--inquiries I am surely not worthy of. So, here's some brief info and I am also dropping the current content of the back-cover summary which is still pending final editorial review. This is an exciting time in the market as e-books are really taking off (mine is traditional paperback). I am also doing research and garnering advice from experienced WA folk who have successfully published e-books. I would really appreciate any feedback you may have, especially if it piques your interest or not. Criticism is the currency here, which can  Remember, the objective of the back-cover summary is purely to push the reader to keep on discovering the book (perhaps follow thru with browsing the table-of-contents), not to provide a synopsis. This one is a somewhat dramatic. The book is called Diatribe: A Scathing Journey into the Heart of the Global Financial Corporate Culture. It is due for publication release end of April 2010.

Diatribe is a swashbuckling, fear-and-loath narrative that cuts through the tabloid-journalism and book-churning typical of financial-scandals, and strikes at the heart of the issues with a blazing sword of irony. Yet it retains a sense of sobriety, is insightful, and even quixotic at times as the world takes pause after a series of economic flights, financial disasters, and the surfacing of the moral ambiguity of our corporate frameworks. Relieved of technical jargon and winding concepts, it speaks to expert and layman alike. And, puts out some thought-provoking questions as well as ideas: Have we lost the core element of vitality in ideal? And what can we do to recover it.

Refreshingly, it’s not written by a Wall Street insider, a journalist, or a proclaimed pundit. But someone from Main Street, who worked on varying rungs in one of the world’s largest and most infamous financial protagonists: Citigroup. The memoir chronicles 15 years, from the third world to the bastion of free-markets. It soothes with the calm of day-to-day banking, simplifies global economic discourse, and yet is as charged as the cauldron of high-stakes financial markets.
