世界是平的(The World is Flat)简介:
The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century is an international bestselling book by Thomas L. Friedman that analyzes globalization, primarily in the early 21st century. The title is a metaphor for viewing the world as a level playing field in terms of commerce, where all competitors have an equal opportunity. As the first edition cover illustration indicates, the title also alludes to the perceptual shift required for countries, companies and individuals to remain competitive in a global market where historical and geographical divisions are becoming increasingly irrelevant.

The book was first released in 2005, was later released as an "updated and expanded" edition in 2006, and yet again released with additional updates in 2007 as "further updated and expanded: Release 3.0." The title was derived from a statement by Nandan Nilekani, the former CEO of Infosys.  世界变得平坦,是不是迫使我们跑得更快才能拥有一席之地?
  在《世界是平的》3.0版中,托马斯•弗里德曼描述了当代世界发生的重大变化。科技和通信领域如闪电般迅速的进步,使全世界的人们可以空前地彼此接近——在印度和中国创造爆炸式增长的财富;挑战我们中的一些人,比他们更快占领地盘。本书3.0版新增两章,更新了报告和注释方面的内容,这些内容均采自作者考察世界各地特别是整个美国中心地带的见闻,在美国本土,世界的平坦化正在剧烈地改变人们的生活方式。
  在《世界是平的》3.0版一书中,托马斯•弗里德曼首先展示了“全球化正在滑入扭曲飞行的原因和方式”(罗伯特•莱特),揭开这个世界的神秘面纱,深入浅出地讲述复杂的外交政策和经济问题,为读者释疑解惑。作者通过其对复杂外交政策和经济问题的非凡的解读能力,解释了世界的平坦化趋势是如何在21世纪来临之时发生的;这个趋势对于国家、公司、社会和个人而言意味着什么;政府和组织如何才能接受而且必须接受;为什么恐怖分子仍然想继续妄为。由托马斯•弗里德曼撰写的《世界是平的》,被认为是全球化的基本读物,既是成功作品,两年来稳居《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜。
