A Splendid Exchange sets out to establish just what drove early man to trade and to examine its profound influence on the world we know today. William Bernstein goes on to suggest that an analysis of one of the globe's most ancient forms of communication might teach us about how to avoid seemingly new anxieties about globalization and the flattening of the world. A Splendid Exchange challenges assumptions on both sides of the great ideological divide over free trade.
