Ballbuster?: True Confessions of a Marxist Businessman - Paperback
by Bertell Ollman (Author)
The memoir of an influential Marxist scholar, professor and game inventor turned business man, BALL BUSTER? is a business adventure story, with enough ups, downs, victories, defeats and suspense to fill a Hitchcock film. It is also an extremely humorous autobiography, full of irony and satire, and sprinkled with scholarly insights, a critical view of business as seen from the inside, and a case study of the Marxist theory of embodiment, which holds that the role you play in society is decisive in determining what kind of person you are.
