joaotjesus's review against another edition
4.0
Very informative book, in which the author, apart from showing us facts of where the world is now, economically speaking, also gives us his theory of why and how we got here.
Although I was not entirely convinced by his Global Plan and Global Minotaur theories, I have to admit that he makes a strong case for how Japan and Germany came to rise as very strong economies.
I will probably read it again soon, as some of the economic concepts didn't really sink in, me being somewhat new to this whole economy business.
Finally, I'll just mention that the book is written in a clear and enjoyable style, with references to popular culture (the Matrix movie, for instance), which should make the economic discussion more easy to follow for a layman.
