This chapter-level audiobook can change the way you listen to BigShots - mostly businesspersons with a snapshot or two of politicians - as they pontificate for public consumption and personal gain.

Many of his stories ring just as true today, as they did when he first told them over 150 years ago.

Schopenhauers "Versuch" will nicht unbedingt eine definitive Antwort geben, sondern eine Debatte anstoßen.
