Book Description

May 30, 2006
Ducks in a row. Squaring the circle. Strategic thinking.

Modern life is full of bullshit, so much so that sometimes it’s hard to know where to draw the line. With hilarious explanations of over five hundred commonly used bullshit words and phrases—in categories including consulting, marketing, politics, and sports—The Business of Bullshit is required reading for anyone who wants to understand the spin-heavy lingo of the modern world.

As a bonus, for the truly inspired, each section comes with a Bullshit Bingo card so you can put your new lexicon to use and compete with your friends—at meetings, lectures, or watching politicians on TV—to see who can get Bingo first.

Some of the best bullshitters and fakes appear to take on the persona of the company they work for, seamlessly moving from job to job and often getting large payoffs as they are found out, often making a lot of money in the process. Read the first page
