THE WORLD IS CHANGING. THE FUTURE IS FLAT...
Thomas Friedman's international bestseller is the most up-to-date and exciting view yet of today's new era of globalization In this further expanded edition, which now also includes two wholly new chapters, he draws on his travels to India. China and the Middle East, and on the explosion of technologies including blogging, online encyclopedias and podcasting, to show how knowledge and resources are connecting all over the planet as never before. This 'flattening' of the world, he argues, can be a force for good - for business, the environment and people everywhere.
