520    Fashion is a business of smoke and mirrors, notorious for 
       crushing the souls of most who dare to be part of the 
       industry. Go on a global expedition with New York City-
       based fashion buyer, strategist, and consultant, Mercedes 
       Gonzalez, as she learns that there is no glamour in 
       fashion and that only cutthroat corporate espionage 
       prevails. From politicking with blood diamond dealers and 
       Russian kingpins to living in indigenous villages, she has
       relied on her street smarts and fear of her uncle in order
       to outwit the industry tyrants at their own game. The 
       underdog becomes the overlord (at-large). You'll want to 
       grab a notebook for all the business (and life) tips this 
       read has to offer. Advance warning, this book will 
       convince you to become a proponent of child labor, an 
       advocate of GMO, and a cynic of organic cotton. Mercedes 
       Gonzalez, founder of Global Purchasing Companies, is an 
       international retail strategist developing and 
       implementing retail techniques around the world. For more 
       than 25 years her influence has impacted some of the 
       industry norms being used today.
