About the book

A memoir of risk-taking, poignancy and redemption, On the Edge recounts University of Washington grad, Stephen Murphy's odyssey east to Harvard Business School. Feel his pain as his hopes come crashing down. Watch him struggle through Vietnam and Pacific typhoons, but find his way to Columbia Business School and later Brazil. How does he live in an infamous favela in Rio de Janeiro, as an international banker, or end up with Hollywood studios, fighting pirates? Or how does he run the gauntlet in both Bush administrations inside the Beltway, yet keep his cool? In twelve chapters focused on "turning points of life," On the Edge: An Odyssey gives inspiration to professionals to land on their feet despite harsh circumstance.
