I'm about a 100 pages into The World is Flat by Thomas Friedman. I'm probably a latecomer, because it looks like everybody and their mother has read this book already.
I'm impressed by Friedman's positivity, his take on things, his effort to talk to leading industrialists or corporate gurus and relay their opinions instead of just shooting off his own mouth. But on the other hand, I'm a little uncomfortable about how he seems careful not to offend anyone, about the glibness of some arguments, the lack of hard evidence.
More as I read.
