    There must be a book the movie “Wall Street” was based on, or at the very least a book written after the movie. I’d look for that. Also “Disclosure” by Michael Crichton… he wrote a few biz books… check out the blurbs on more by him, he’s a good storyteller.

    Sinclair Lewis’ “Babbitt”
    Sloan Wilson’s “The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit”
    Michael Crichton’s “Airframe”
    William Faulkner’s “Go Down Moses”

    Arthur Hailey wrote several dealing with specific industries – wheels, Hotel, Airport etc.

    I like Paul Erdman, who writes about banking – he is (was?) an ex internationalbanker, and know his stuff – though all the books I’;ve seen are from the 70s or 80s – “The Silver Bears”, The Crash of ‘79″ are two of hisbest.
