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

interesting but no enough insights

Friedman is a charming story teller. His writing is attractive to a large audience. But reading it made me feel that his insights are rather limited. Also, his knowledge on the changing world, especially emerging nations is not penetrating. For a far better book on globalization, I recommend: China's global reach: markets, multinationals, and globalization by a Chinese journalist George Zhibin Gu, which offers sweeping views on China and global affairs.
