House of Lies. How management consultants steal your watch and then tell you the time. Martin Kihn. 2005. ISBN 0446576565. Quite a hilarious book that was the inspiration for  House of Lies the TV series.  Yet the TV series is funnier than this book.  I appreciated the dictionary of consultants words and tongue in cheek  quick summaries of the Worlds Best business books. The portrayals are so gritty and  honest that you wonder how the industry of consulting could sustain itself.  Yet it did for many years.   Its an easy book to read and good for a cross country flight.  But get it out of the library – not a keeper.
