Evolution and its Impact on Business Restructuring

Neil Taylor, Founder and Managing Director, NTI, UK

No book has so profoundly affected the modern view of man than Darwin's The Origin of the Species, published in 1859. The evolutionary theory it promulgated led to waves of pessimism and scepticism across both Victorian society and the individual's entire way of life.
Suddenly, human beings had a choice. To deny the theories flat-out, or question some of the most essential concepts which humanity had (ironically) evolved over thousands of years: man, nature, consciousness, God, soul, and so on. However, Darwin's grandad, Erasmus, was a poet and alluded to the same theory before his grandson could hold a quill. I wonder if Charles would have survived had his grandfather fostered 15,000 grandchildren? If not, it would have saved Victorians many sleepless nights and made fundamentalists much happier.

International Corporate Rescue

"International Corporate Rescue is great. In a busy world, it covers a truly global range of restructuring topics in just the right depth, enough for an understanding of the important points, but not a lengthy mini-PhD. I find it really helpful for keeping informed about the areas I work in, and to have ‘issue awareness’ about areas further afield. I always read it."

Richard Tett, Freshfields, London Head of Restructuring & Insolvency
