In a tapestry of vivid and incisive vignettes, Jan Black lays bare the reality that lies behind the mantras and cheery slogans about the wonders and promise of globalization. Her careful scrutiny yields a sober and compelling picture of freedom with little choice or opportunity, and economies that are doing fine apart from thepeople. This is not only a lucid and informative commentary, but also a call to action that should not be ignored. Noam Chomsky
