In his debut novel, Brett Pahler provides a luminary to those young at heart and disillusioned with their careers. Protagonist Silas Whitaker, an early thirties professional desperate to eek out meaning within his Finance landscape, at long last takes matters in his own hands. With an interior monologue that never sleeps, Silas spends his last week carving his initials into the bureaucracy that employs him, turning the drudgery into anything but, keeping his superiors off balance every step of the way. His refusal to accept corporate norms offers equal parts hilarity and chilling critique, his dialogue in and around the office rare authenticity. Readers will appreciate the pace, wit, edge, and earnestness with which Pahler weaves this story.

Derek Johnston starts his new career and tells himself he needs to step up his game and become a professional, especially if he wants to be taken serious. That all changes when he learns his co-workers are not as "professional" as they all come off to be. In fact, before he realizes it, Derek learns that he and his co-workers share a few more things in common than just being under the same payroll.In a field where mixing business and pleasure is the thing NOT to do, obliviously everyone does it and before all the employees of The Firm Firm realize it, it is too late to stop what they have all started, especially when everyone has ties to each other and a dark past of their own; the fine line between professional and personal is violated on any and all levels. It's a dog eat dog world and everyone is starving for a position at the top that only seats one.

This groundbreaking work by leading social psychologists, who have all contributed in important ways to the psychology of group perception, focuses in particular on three interrelated issues: (1) whether groups are seen to be diverse or relatively homogeneous; (2) whether groups are seen as real and stable or only transitory and ephemeral; and (3) whether group membership derives from some essential quality of the members or rather is based on social constructions.

Organizations are caught in clichés. This means that they do not think for themselves anymore, but rather simply copy pre-existing ideas. This is giving rise to a world which pretends to be knowable, predictable and mouldable, one in which clichés like efficiency, transparency, means-ends rationality, and the strong leader are used without further thought or critique. This is the reason why organizations come into conflict with themselves, and which causes a seemingly unresolvable crisis. Film, however, can show us a totally different world. It has a subversive potency that can wake up the viewer, making them think again, allowing them to see a world which cannot be perceived anymore. It can show the world as it really is again, and can enable us to break through clichés. This book adopts a unique viewpoint on organizations, through its use of film. With the help of philosophers like Deleuze, Heidegger and Sloterdijk, filmmakers like the Coen Brothers, Cronenberg, Antonioni and Tarkovsky and films like The Big Lebowski, eXistenZ, Stalker and Playtime, a world is revealed and explored. It shows the decisive role played by architecture, and why managers are manipulative and impotent at the same time.

Angela Talbott is dead. And she just realized that heaven isn’t eternal bliss and golden halos and discussions about cream cheese—it’s work. Hard work. Angela has been dead for three days, and she’s already been given a job—solving her own murder, which is turning out to be tougher than she ever would have thought. Being dead makes her invisible to the living, but it sure doesn’t make her Sherlock Holmes. And the suspects are piling up—her boyfriend, her anal-retentive co-worker, a homeless panhandler. And her brother. To make matters worse, there are two Hellions dogging her every move. These Hellions might not have horns and pitchforks, but they are big trouble. If Angela is killed by one of these two men, the afterlife is all over for her—and that’s exactly what they seem to be trying to do. Despite that, Angela finds herself inexplicably attracted to one of them: Alec, a man with a mysterious past who seems to know Angela better than she knows herself. But once Angela discovers that Alec may have been the one pulling the strings that led to her murder, all bets are off.
