Sammy over at
Palm Addicts has a great post about the e-book version of Thomas Friedman's book
The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century. Check it out
here.
I listened to the
Audible version of his previous book,
The Lexus and the Olive Tree and I highly recommend it as well to anyone interested in the impact of the internet, technology, and the "Electronic Herd" on the world's economy. He makes a compelling argument for nuturing entrepreneurship and embracing globalization and the "Golden Straitjacket" by comparing the prosperity and standards of living between countries with free market economies to those with closed markets and societies.
If you have read
The World is Flat or
The Lexus and the Olive Tree, please feel free to review them in the discussion thread.
