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.
