Editorial Reviews:
Review:

"[A]n enthralling read. To his credit, Friedman embraces much of his flat world's complexity, and his reporting brings to vibrant life some beguiling characters and trends....It is also more lively, provocative and sophisticated than the overwhelming bulk of foreign policy commentary these days....[A] terrifically stimulating book...."

Warren Bass, Washington Post Book World, 04/03/2005

Review:

"[E]xcellent....The metaphor of a flat world, used by Friedman to describe the next phase of globalization, is ingenious....Friedman has a flair for business reporting....[The book's] fundamental insight is true and deeply important."

Fareed Zakaria, New York Times Book Review, 05/01/2005
