Business Week describes Tom Peters as "business' best friend and worst nightmare." Tom describes himself as a prince of disorder, champion of bold failures, maestro of zest, professional loudmouth, corporate cheerleader, lover of markets, capitalist pig ... and card-carrying member of the ACLU. Tom and Bob Waterman co-authored In Search of Excellence in 1982; the book was named by NPR (in 1999) as one of the "Top Three Business Books of the Century." Tom followed Search with a string of international bestsellers, including his most recent release Re-imagine! Business Excellence in a Disruptive Age, which re-invents the business book via a vibrant, energetic presentation of critical ideas.
