Customer Review:
How lucky we are that there are humans who dedicate their time/life to bridging the gaps to understanding the differences (and similarities) between species. My regret... is: not meeting Alex. I believe Irene's book is the next best thing. | 4.5 / 5.0

from W. W. Norton
Price: $16.34
Customer Review:
An intelligent book that looks at trends in globalization, modernization of developing countries, and what it all means to the United States. Zakaria is clearly adept at gathering, processing, and synthesizing vast and seemingly unrelated bodies of information about a subject. I guess that is what... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

| 15. |  | Freakonomics [Revised and Expanded]: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
from William Morrow
Price: $19.17
Customer Review:
Freakonomics' strongest asset is its blunt force mauling of conventional wisdom and the often unveering faith that journalists, experts and ordinary folks pay it, often only to serve (sadly) their own interests. When that is the authors' approach they deliver sound arguments. That, thankfully, is... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from Picador
Price: $10.08
Customer Review:
A transparent attempt to justify the new colonialism. In the 16th century it was the great nations of Europe, in the 21st it is the multinational corporation. It is still exploitation of the haves by the have-nots, just a lot of new lipstick on the same old pig! | 4.0 / 5.0
