"The World Is Flat - Thomas Friedman"
A terrible book. Looks like he made a talk he gave or a paper into a book. Says nothing in several hundred pages that he could not say in a few. Many things are actually wrong. If the world would be flat, geopolitics would be meaningless.
- mindcrime 10y agoIf the world would be flat, geopolitics would be meaningless. I think it's pretty clear that it's a metaphor and that qualifiers apply. Nonetheless, the book inspired me and I gained a new appreciation for a lot of things from reading it. For all its flaws, I would advocate reading it to everyone. shrug
