The author of this book is best known for his role as advisor to Donald Trump on the apprentice, however, he has be a key player in negotiating real estate contracts in New York for Donald Trump and Sol Goldman among others. His book is well written and full of tips and tactics for negotiating in any situation.

The stories which Ross uses to illustrates his points are colourful and interesting. Some of which are morally questionable on the surface but continue listening and his reasons for detailing them become clear. His background in negotiation and his 50 years of experience give Ross a unique insight into a complicated area which he uniquely explains.
