                  The Lexus and the Olive Tree
                   Understanding Globalization
                       Thomas L. Friedman
                       ISBN 0-385-49934-5
                     Softcover U.S. $15.00

I have to thank fellow Extrope Ron for bringing this book to my
attention. A fascinating take on globalization by a foreign affairs
reporter from the New York Times.
 
I'm about half way through it and it has given me considerable
cause for thought, along with a laugh or two. Certainly a different
way of looking at things. I'd say a must read.

I'm reminded of Alvin and Heidi Toffler.
