Critical Chain is a novel by Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt using the critical chain theory of project management as the major theme.

Sounds like a real banger…

That said, I remember liking Murder at the Margin and the other Henry Spearman “economics professor solves murders with economics” books, so who knows…

@pganssle management fiction is/should be a genre unto itself. I think it started with "The Goal" but I first ran into it with "The Phoenix Project". Probably "out there" incarnation is the Moshidora anime, where an unlikely baseball manager successfully fixes a baseball team using Drucker.

Business people love to set up their idealized selves to perfectly solve their strawman scenarios. :P

@mahmoud To be fair, most business books already fit into the genre of "management fiction". 😉
