abstract:Talking Straight (1988 Bantam Books)ISBN 0-553-05270-5 is a book written by Lee Iacocca, then CEO of Chrysler Motors, with Sonny Kleinfeld. It was written partly in response to Akio Morita's Made in Japan, a non-fiction book praising Japan's post-war hard-working culture.
And talkingstraight to the American people about how we're going to solve these problems, and putting in the hard work of negotiations to get stuff done.
The new Woody Allen film stars Larry David as Boris Yellnikoff, an irate New Yorker who once had a beautiful wife and a serious reputation as a physicist. (Or so he tells us, talkingstraight to the camera.) Now he has a lousy apartment, no job unless you count chess tutoring and nobody to share his life except for a few cronies.
