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.
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...
评分犹记得 当初美国的“X一代”曾被他们的父兄辈们定义为 浅薄,易变,懒散,不忠诚和没有理想, 同样在我们的父辈中,鲁迅先生也曾说过, “中国少有失败的英雄,少有韧性的反抗, 少有敢单身鏖战的武人,少有敢抚哭叛徒的吊客. 见胜兆则纷纷聚集, 见败兆,则纷纷逃亡.” 七十年过去了, ...
评分不管怎么说,《世界是平的》至少是个成功的出版业营销个案。已经有无数围绕着它的书评和报道,很多人都知道了作者的主要观点:在这个坏消息接连不断的世界上,全球化将给所有愿意跟上这一潮流的人带来机会。这个面向未来的蓝图的确振奋人心,不过,关于全球化的书早已汗牛充栋...
评分[随手一记] 世界是平的&湖南科学技术出版社&东方出版社 我要写书评,而且要评《世界是平的》,你信吗?熟悉我的,或熟悉我的blog的朋友,都肯定不信。但这次,各位非信不可。呃,先声明一句,这本书,我现在只看到第9页。 我要评的这个版本,是很新的2006年9月版,译者是何帆...
评分题记:我渴望成为你思想上的伙伴,平坦世界中的朋友! —— 不戒 一本书洗了我的脑,书的名字叫《世界是平的》。 读完了《纽约时报》专栏作家托马斯•弗里德曼的这本书,我忍不住问自己:天哪,这家伙是怎样做到的呢?然后,我像那只想吃天鹅肉的赖蛤...
事实上是在听语音书,同时增进自己的英文水平
评分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
评分开启了我对经济学的兴趣大门~~条理很好
评分作为学术研究有点不对味,作为消遣话题又太严肃。
评分完全跳读,不太感兴趣。
