Narrated by David Ian Davies

"one mark of a great book is that it makes you see things in a new way, and
Mr. Friedman certainly succeeds in that goal," the Nobel laureate Joseph E.
Stiglitz wrote in The New York Times reviewing The World Is Flat in 2005.
In this new edition, Thomas L. Friedman includes fresh stories and insights
to help us understand the flattening of the world. Weaving new information
into his overall thesis, and answering the questions he has been most
frequently asked by parents across the country, this third edition also
includes two new chapters--on how to be a political activist and social
entrepreneur in a flat world; and on the more troubling question of how to
manage our reputations and privacy in a world where we are all becoming
publishers and public figures.

The World Is Flat 3.0 is an essential update on globalization, its opportunities
for individual empowerment, its achievements at lifting millions out of poverty,
and its drawbacks--environmental, social, and political, powerfully illuminated
by the Pulitzer Prize--winning author of The Lexus and the Olive Tree.

Thomas L. Friedman has won the Pulitzer Prize three times for his work at
"The New York Times," where he serves as the foreign affairs columnist. He is
author of three other bestselling books, including "Longitudes and Attitudes."
Friedman was also named one of America's Best Leaders by "U.S. News and World
Report." He lives in Bethesda, Maryland, with his family. Visit his Web site
