Rezensionen
"This book should be required reading for every young person who seeks a business degree. That applies equally to the current management of GM."
-David E. Davis, Jr., former editor and publisher of Car and Driver

"This is exactly what you'd expect from Bob Lutz: no holds barred, no punches pulled, and no stone left unturned. It's a true insider's perspective and a great read."

-Stephen J. Girsky, vice chairman of General Motors

" Car Guys vs. Bean Counters is the best book written by an auto industry insider since Iacocca in 1984, and deserves to be shelved alongside Alfred P. Sloan's management classic, My Years with General Motors ."
