When scholars write the history of the world twenty years from now, and they come to the chapter "Y2K to March 2004," what will they say was the most crucial development? The attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11 and the Iraq war? Or the convergence of technology and events that allowed India, China, and so many other countries to become part of the global supply chain for services and manufacturing, creating an explosion of wealth in the middle classes of the world's two biggest nations, giving them a huge new stake in the success of globalization? And with this "flattening" of the globe, which requires us to run faster in order to stay in place, has the world gotten too small and too fast for human beings and their political systems to adjust in a stable manner?
In this brilliant new book, the award-winning New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman demystifies the brave new world for readers, allowing them to make sense of the often bewildering global scene unfolding before their eyes. With his inimitable ability to translate complex foreign policy and economic issues, Friedman explains how the flattening of the world happened at the dawn of the twenty-first century; what it means to countries, companies, communities, and individuals; and how governments and societies can, and must, adapt. The World Is Flat is the timely and essential update on globalization, its successes and discontents, powerfully illuminated by one of our most respected journalists.

评分鉴于此书在全世界的热度,我是带着崇敬的心情拜读的。 可惜只开了个头,10分钟后我就拜不下去啦,接下去就是采用速读大法,用5个小时就看完了。 反正我知道作者的意思:世界因为网络而改变,在未来,印度跟中国的潜力巨大,因为网络,所以世界也就变平了。 看完之后,我有一个...

评分1. 去年夏天,正是最热的时候,一港姐来京公干。一天谈下来,精疲力竭,口干舌噪,心情很是不爽。当港姐笑咪咪地说晚上一起吃饭时,我脱口而出: “不去!” 还是人家特区的素质高,根本不和我一般见识,一边说遗憾一边就递过来一份包装异常精美礼品。 ...
因为想学的东西太多时间却不够而焦虑的偶,看完这本书就更觉得危机重重了。T_T
