A stroll through the brambles of law, management, philosophy, language, technology, cricket and high finance. Like a good alluvial fan, everything is silting up nicely and there are now 4,498 articles in this wiki.

What’s in here
Anatomies: Clause-by-clause Anatomy and nutshell guides (hit the bar on the left) to ISDA and other master trading agreements. These may be incomplete, out of date, out of touch, flippant — well, they are flippant — but will still be better value and more entertaining than that awful FT book about derivatives;
Book reviews culled from twenty indolent years sounding off on Amazon;
Much flippancy about plain English, buzzwords, technology, negotiation, flannel, Latin, Greek, metaphor and eggs.
A new section on the odd political situation in New Zealand in 1982. (Why? — long story, really.)
What’s new
The Jolly Contrarian Blog: A tentative dip into the tepid waters of audience engagement. Newsletters. Surveys. That kind of thing.
The seven wastes of negotiation: Imagine your ISDA was a Toyota Corolla, and it all starts making sense.
Sticking a Cross Default in the GMSLA: Good idea, right? Or — yeah, not so much.
Confi Anatomy: It may be the most pointless contract you'll ever negotiate, but doesn’t mean it can’t get tasty. Having an NDA smackdown? We've got you covered.
New Anatomy™ guides: Pledge GMSLA | Negotiation | Conference calls
