Thank you for being late : an optimist's guide to thriving in the age of accelerations

Friedman, Thomas L. (author.).

Summary: In his most ambitious work to date, Thomas L. Friedman shows that we have entered an age of dizzying acceleration - and explains how to live in it. A parallel explosion of economic interdependency has created new riches as well as spiraling debt burdens. Meanwhile, Mother Nature is also seeing dramatic changes as carbon levels rise and species go extinct, with compounding results. How do these changes interact, and how can we cope with them? With vision, authority, and wit, this book establishes a blueprint for how to think about our times.
