Friedman Thomas

Hot, Flat, and Crowded Thomas Friedman's phenomenal The World is Flat helped millions of people see globalization in a new way. Now he takes a fresh, provocative look at the biggest challenge facing us today — our hot, flat and crowded world. Climate change and rapid population growth mean that it's no longer possible for businesses, or the rest of us, to keep doing things the same old way. Things are going to have to change — and fast. Here Friedman provides a bold strategy for clean fuel, energy efficiency and conservation that he calls 'Code Green'. It will change everything, from what we put into our cars and see on our electricity bills to how we live our lives. Hot, Flat and Crowded is fearless, forward-looking and rich in common sense about the challenge — and the promise — of the future. Подробнее
That Used to be Us America has a huge problem. It faces four major challenges, on which its future depends, and it is failing to meet them. In What's Wrong with America? Thomas L. Friedman and Michael Mandelbaum analyze those challenges — globalization, the revolution in information technology, the nation's chronic deficits, and its pattern of energy consumption — and spell out what needs to be done now to rediscover America's power and prowess. They explain how the end of the cold war blinded the nation to the need to address these issues seriously. They show how America's history, when properly understood, provides the key to coping successfully and explain how the paralysis of the US political system and the erosion of key American values have made it impossible to carry out the policies the country needs. What's Wrong with America — is both a searching exploration of the American condition today and a rousing manifesto for American renewal. Подробнее
