If you aren't familiar with the Herbalife story, this is probably a really good introduction. But the focus is really on the various disagreements between Carl Ichan & Bill Ackman without either coming out clean. They both seem like assholes to me, but in different ways.
Unfortunately, the length of their personal dispute revolves around just two investment deals one in which they were partners and the Herbalife thing where they were on opposite sides. So, although it's framed as this epic battle between investment titans (and it really was) it was narratively weak, IMHO. Another couple of minor, but escalating clashes before Herbalife to build tension might have made the story more compelling.
