Book Description

Publication Date: Nov 1 1994 | Series: Windsor Selections
A brutal struggle in the cutthroat computer industry; a shattering psychological game of cat and mouse; an accusation of sexual harassment that threatens to derail a brilliant career...this is the electrifying core of Michael Crichton's new novel, the first since Rising Sun.

At the center: Tom Sanders, an up-and-coming executive with DigiCom in Seattle, a man whose corporate future is certain. Until: after a closed-door meeting with his new boss -- a woman who was his lover ten years before, a woman who has been promoted to the position he expected to have -- he is accused of sexually harassing her. Now he finds himself trapped between what he knows to be true and what he knows others will assume to be the truth. And, as he uncovers an electronic trail into the company's secrets, he begins to grasp just how cynical and manipulative an abuse of truth has actually occurred...

Tackling one of the most divisive issues of our time, Disclosure compels us to see beyond our traditional responses. It is Michael Crichton at his best.

Michael Crichton's novels include The Terminal Man, Congo, Sphere, Jurassic Park, and Rising Sun.

Product Details

Product Description

From School Library Journal

YA-Beautiful, bright, and talented Meredith Johnson arrives at Digital Communications Technology company to become the head of a division, a position that Tom Sanders thought was going to be his. Meredith, his former lover, invites him to her office after hours and attempts to seduce him. When he rejects her, she accuses him of sexual harassment. Tom hires Louise Fernandez to defend him and reverses the accusation to name Meredith as the aggressor. To this plot, Crichton adds computer-industry sabotage, corporate mergers, video-linkups, stock options, CD-ROM jargon, and even a trip on a virtual-reality simulator to help Tom save his reputation and career. YAs will love all the technology and the author's easy, readable style, but the graphic sex and obvious theme that harassment is power may make Disclosure a more suitable choice for public than for school libraries.

By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The book is very well written. At fisrt I wasn't sure if the book was going to be good or not because, I had a diferent idea of the kind of books that Crichton wrote. It turned out to be a very well written story. You can not tell until the end what is going to happen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thrilling Jun 14 2004
By Grant McKee
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Michael Crichton is one of the best pure science fiction writers working today, at least in terms of his concepts. It's odd, then, that probably his most entertaining and intriguing book is closer to a straight-forward mystery. Nevertheless, this story of betrayal, backstabbing, and corporate culture is about as nail-biting as popular fiction gets. I normally find terms like "page-turner" annoying, but that's really the best way to describe a book like this. Immensely read-able, hugely entertaining, and completely enthralling. Read this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent May 26 2004
By Chad Rickman
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book is a thrilling spectacle, delving into the complex mess that mess political correctness has created. It controversially challenges the notion of the dominant male and submissive female, and pointedly damns the unfair rules that have shackled men in the modern world. Fantastic work by Mr. Crichton!
