Description
The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century by Thomas L. Friedman is a thought-provoking exploration of globalization and its impact on our world. In this new edition, Friedman shares fresh stories and insights to help us understand the complexities of a rapidly changing global landscape. Friedman's book weaves together new information with his overall thesis, addressing questions about how to navigate this new world. Two new chapters offer practical advice on being a political activist and social entrepreneur in a flat world, as well as managing our reputations and privacy in an era where we are all becoming publishers and public figures. A valuable update on globalization, its opportunities for individual empowerment, and its challenges, The World Is Flat 3.0 is a powerful exploration of the benefits and drawbacks of this phenomenon.
