Stiglitz has written on several books on globalization. This is his latest book on the subject. Topical and timely, but it is very much on the surface. It is mostly opinions other than serious analysis on changing world. Far better books on the same subject: 1. China's global reach; and 2. China and the new world order. Both books offer realistic analysis and discussions on what is behind changing global business, investment, trade and politics. They further pinpoint opportunities and challenges.
