Dr. Berson is Professor, Department of Business Management, Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York.

To quote Dr. Berson:

"One might suppose that to understand capitalism, a judicious sampling of the non-fictional literature would yield an enlightening syllabus for study. Yet for all the business sources which purport to do this, there is still something--something important--missing...The quality of capitalism absent from its non-fiction is intensely human; it comprises the feelings, emotions and true motives associated with the making of business decisions.

...This leaves the fictional literature of business as the remaining convenient source of honest information about "the real world" of business experience. Despite the paradox of using fiction to comprehend fact, when it comes to business, fiction is often truer than fact.

...Business novels depict managers and entrepreneurs making decisions in behalf of or influenced by businesses for whose success they are responsible".
