The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century

Title The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century Author Thomas L. Friedman Call Number HM846 .F74 2006 Location 2nd Floor Social Sciences Rating Somewhat Recommended Book Review This one is a bit hard to rate. On the one hand, I did find it well-written and accessible, and it helped fill in some of the gaps in my knowledge and understanding of global economics and globalism. On the other hand, I strongly disagree with a lot of Friedman's assertions about things, particularly in regards to poverty and non-white U.S. cultures.
