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 ”V a ”„flattening”¦ of the world. With his inimitable ability to simplify complex political and economic issues, he explains how this flattening of the world happened; what it will mean for countries, communities and individuals; and how governments and societies can ”V and must ”V adapt.
