BEWARE THE WINNER'S CURSE

"In this book, the authors have used an interesting approach in teaching some of the lessons learned in the technology downturn of the early twenty-first century. Beware the Winner's Curse gives us alternative ways of thinking of asset values before we overpay for these assets." -Joseph J. Bonocore, President & CEO, Impresa Technologies, Inc.

"Beware the Winner's Curse is a brutally honest review of how often investors lose money when management pursues winning at almost any cost. The authors present abundant examples of corporate hubris that should send shivers down the spine of any director serious about protecting shareowner interests." -Harvey Seegers, former CEO, Global Exchange Services
