Why We Recommend These Books

In our work, we discover many fascinating books on the global economy, politics and culture.

To give you the true flavor of the author and the material, we present an excerpt from a new book each week on The Globalist Bookshelf.

Rather than providing a review, we believe that there is nothing better than allowing the authors to speak for themselves.
