The beginning of the twenty-first century will be remembered, friedman argues, not for military conflicts or political events, but for a whole new age of globalization - a flattening of the world the explosion of advanced technologies now means that suddenly knowledge pools and resources have connected all over the planet, levelling the playing field as never before, so that each of us is potentially an equal - and competitor - of the other the rules of the game have changed forever - but does this death of distance, which requires us all to run faster in order to stay in the same place, mean the world has got too small and too flat too fast for us to adjust friedman brilliantly demystifies the exciting, often bewildering, global scene unfolding before our eyes, one which we sense but barely yet understand the world is flat is the most timely and essential update on globalization, its successes and its discontents, powerfully illuminated by a world-class writer in his new if its not happening, its because youre not doing it and what happens when we all have dogs hearing the author explores both the benefits and disadvantages of the very latest developments in global communication the emergent popularity of blogging, pod-casting, youtube and myspace enable the modern world citizen to broadcast their views to a potential audience of billions, and the proliferation of internet access to even the poorest communities gives everyone who wants to the tools to address issues of social injustice and inequality on the other hand the technology that seems to improve communication on a global scale causes it to deteriorate on a local scale identifying ours as the age of interruption, friedman discusses the annoyance and dangers of blackberrys in meeting rooms, hands-free kits in conversation and using a phone or ipod whilst driving

A provocative critique of the pieties and fallacies of our obsession with economic growthWe live in a society in which a priesthood of economists, wielding impenetrable mathematical formulas, sets the framework for public debate. Ultimately, it is economists who set the agenda for how much we can spend on our schools, highways, and defense; who decide how much unemployment is acceptable and whether it is right to print money or bail out profligate banks.The backlash we are currently witnessing suggests that people are turning against the economists and their faulty representation of our lives. Despite decades of steady economic growth, many citizens feel more pessimistic than ever, and are voting for candidates who voice undisguised contempt for the technocratic elite. For too long, economics has relied on a language which fails to resonate with people's lived experience, and we are now living with the consequences.In this powerful, incisive book, David Pilling dives into the biases and failings of our obsession with economic growth, and explores the alternatives to GDP, from measures of wealth, equality, and sustainability to measures of subjective wellbeing. Authoritative, provocative, and eye-opening, The Growth Delusion offers witty and unexpected insights into how our society can respond to the needs of real people instead of pursuing growth at any cost.
