9788535921007CIA DAS LETRAS. new. Os chineses ocuparo no sculo XXI o lugar at ento pertencente aos norte-americanos Thomas Friedmam e Michael Mandelbaum se recusam a acreditar nisso. Em uma conversa informal e agradvel discutem esse entre outros assuntos em uma viagem que comea com a construo do sonho americano e desembarca na recente crise que abalou Wall Street e o mundo. A partir de uma escada rolante emperrada numa estao de metr em Washington e das 24 semanas passadas at que fosse consertada os amigos analisam a atual letargia da sociedade em que nasceram - e de que tanto se orgulham - e discutem como enfrentar seus enormes desafios. Eles se lembram dos valores que tornaram os Estados Unidos a maior potncia do planeta esclarecendo por que esses ideais foram abandonados. Apresentam nmeros chocantes como o fato de em 2009 os consumidores do pa�s terem gasto mais em batatas fritas do que a quantia destinada pelo governo ao desenvolvimento de matrizes energticas. A partir de exemplos como esse os autores traam o perfil de uma nao aptica com uma d�vida pblica estratosfrica a infraestrutura defasada e a educao de base em frangalhos. So questes definitivas em um mundo globalizado no qual a revoluo da tecnologia da informao est alterando completamente a circulao de pessoas informao e servio. Estressante demais � o que se perguntam os autores para em seguida responder que ""estresse o que voc sente quando no consegue entender o sotaque chins do seu primeiro chefe - no nico emprego que lhe oferecem ao sair da faculdade"".

200888196New York NY: Farrar Straus Giroux 2008. First edition stated. Second printing stated. Hardcover. Very good/Good. Nancy Ostertag Author photograph. 10 438 pages. Illustrations. Index. DJ has a tear and crease at the top front at spine. Signed by author on the half-title page. Thomas Loren Friedman born July 20 1953 is an American journalist columnist and author. He has written extensively on foreign affairs including trade the Middle East globalization and environmental issues. He has won the Pulitzer Prize three times. He joined The New York Times as a reporter in 1981 and dispatched to Beirut at the start of the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. His coverage of the war won him the Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting. Friedman served as the New York Times Jerusalem Bureau Chief from June 1984 until February 1988. That year he received a second Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting. He wrote From Beirut to Jerusalem describing his experiences in the Middle East which won the 1989 U.S. National Book Award for Nonfiction. In 1994 he moved to the op-ed page of The New York Times. He later received a third Pulitzer Prize. The author brings a fresh outlook to the crises of destabilizing climate change and rising competition for energy. A wag once quipped that Thomas Friedman's bountiful bestseller The World Is Flat calmed the storms about globalization. In his latest effort the influential New York Times Op-Ed columnist presses his case that Green is the new Red White and Blue. Friedman argues that environmentalism isn't just a survival imperative; it's the best way to make America richer more productive and not least more secure. Spanning the globe he presents case study after case study that shows that Green-oriented practices and technologies are the key to revitalizing our country and stabilizing an increasingly energy-starved world. Derived from a Kirkus review: The world is flat New York Times columnist Friedman told us in his bestselling 2005 book of that name. Now things are getting worse and the clock is ticking. Americans have squandered most of the goodwill extended since 9/11 writes Friedman and in the years of the Bush administration no thought has been given to what 9/12 is supposed to look like. The climate is changing but the administration has spent most of its tenure denying it and insisting on a particularist view that we deserve to be profligate because we're Americans. Our political blindness and ignorance vis-à-vis other nations now butts up against the world's instability and Friedman continues "the convergence of hot flat and crowded is tightening energy supplies intensifying the extinction of plants and animals deepening energy poverty strengthening petrodictatorship and accelerating climate change." The way out of those tangles he says is for America to go green in any way possible—and to do it right away investing in every kind of alternative and renewable energy form imaginable setting the best of examples for the rest of the world and exporting green technologies everywhere thus winning back allies and influencing people. Readers who have been paying attention to Fareed Zakaria Jared Diamond or similar writers know most of this but still the word has been slow getting out. Many others have written about these subjects but few enjoy Friedman's audience so it's good that he's turning to such matters if a touch belatedly. His case studies—from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's insistence on a fleet of hybrid taxis on the street to British firm Marks & Spencer's insistence that going green is Plan A and that "there is no Plan B" —are well-selected detailed and in the end quite inspiring. That inspiration is needed along with a lot of hard work. A timely rewarding book. Farrar, Straus Giroux hardcover
