Globalization and its Discontents
Joseph E Stiglitz
ISBN 0-393-05124-2
U.S. $24.95
An interesting look at Globalization by a former Chairman of the
council of economic advisers under Clinton, World Bank Vice
President and co-winner of the 2001 Nobel prize in economics.
Although I've just started this book I've already learned a few
things about the IMF, WTO, and the World bank.
And although the author and I are bound to disagree about some
things (he supports the idea of a world government (gag!)) This is
clearly a valuable book for those interested in the subject matter
More when I've finished it.
