Sobre IBD

Glenn shares threads of his life in this searching memoir. It includes glimpses into his doomed relationships, his experiences as a teacher - despite this not being his chosen career, and his experiences in other roles. He has been a manager, a magazine editor, head of a national organisation, and a writer of commentary for management professionals. He has been a hippie living in the hills. He has become the writer of many books. And he has maintained his enjoyment of life. It is a book Glenn calls 'a reflection on experience'.
