When McKinsey Comes to Town

A gripping revelation delves into the secretive operations of McKinsey & Company, a global consulting powerhouse whose influence has contributed to increasing inequality, corruption, and instability around the world. This influential firm has secured billions by advising many leading corporations and numerous governments, possibly including yours. For years, their strategies were obscured by non-disclosure agreements, but that veil has been lifted. In this eye-opening narrative, acclaimed journalists Walt Bogdanich and Michael Forsythe investigate and expose unsettling truths about the company’s endeavors. McKinsey has played a role in driving severe budget cuts to the NHS, assisting Big Oil with strategic challenges, promoting the overprescription of opioids, implementing controversial immigration policies during Trump's administration, and advising some of the planet’s most questionable leaders. The OBSERVER describes it as 'A story of secrecy, delusion and untold harm,' while the SUNDAY TIMES highlights the intense indignation it provokes, stating that 'the evidence the authors winkle out is astonishing.'
