2.0 out of 5 stars
Barely readable for those outside advertising,
By D.E. Wray (Tokyo) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Conflicting Accounts: The Creation and Crash of the Saatchi and Saatchi Advertising Empire (Paperback)
As the other reviewer pointed out, there is no analysis in this book, which seems to have been cobbled together from newspaper reports.
Readers who were not involved in the advertising business during the period covered (roughly 1975 to 1995) will likely find the account difficult to follow, as the author seems to string together information as he found it, including in narrative passages, for example, needless material or material that would have been better relegated to scene setting sections. Basically, the book shares much with gossip columns, being simply a chronology of who said what when, larded with pointless information about the characters' personal lives. Many will find this difficult to finish.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Readable, but unmemorable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Conflicting Accounts: The Creation and Crash of the Saatchi and Saatchi Advertising Empire (Paperback)
From this type of book (business history), I want to come away with more than just history and facts, I want insight and revelation. With Conflicting Accounts, I got little of the latter.
