A popular author and a relevant subject. Globalization is the dominant economic and investment theme of the day and its implications are far-reaching. I travel the globe extensively and can identify with many of Friedman's observations. Anybody in the investment world will enjoy this book. It is an excellent primer on the new, global business environment, something we all have to understand.

I thought this book was terrific in the way it shows how and why the free-market economy has won out over other systems.
