Everybody Wins! is a case study in American business enterprise told through the life of an extraordinary man. The book chronicles how chemical engineer Gordon Cain -- when well past retirement age -- effected a turnaround in the commodity chemicals industry through the strategies of innovative management, employee stock ownership, and leveraged buyouts (LBOs). Then in his eighties he changed course again, this time turning his energies and interests to a "young man's" field -- biotechnology.
