			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of my professors recently called <em>Barbarians at the Gate</em> (about KKR&#8217;s LBO of RJR Nabisco) the best business book ever written. I haven&#8217;t read enough good business books to make such a claim, but I did start reading Barbarians recently, and it&#8217;s a page-turner. So, at least it has that going. The prose is not great, but it&#8217;s good for the poor standards set by other business books. If the number of acronyms in that parenthetical didn&#8217;t scare you off, you can download a PDF copy of <em>Barbarians at the Gate</em> because some idiot, who doesn&#8217;t understand the concept or law of copyright, <a href="http://uploading.com/files/YO3T00XE/Barbarians%20At%20the%20Gate.pdf.html" target="_blank">uploaded it to a file sharing site.</a></p>
