3.0 out of 5 stars
Useful Introduction, August 27, 2000
This review is from: How Nations Grow Rich: The Case for Free Trade (Hardcover)
A reasonable quick introduction to free trade from someone who is obviously much in favour of it. Doesn't go deeply into things and is heavily based on fairly recent US-orientated examples. It appears to be reasonably well researched and the author backs up his points well but the book does not really grip or inspire you.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Poorly written, Badly Organized and Factually Incomplete, February 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: How Nations Grow Rich: The Case for Free Trade (Hardcover)
This book presented an immensly skewed version of the realities of free trade's impacts on global society at large. It glossed over very real arguements against free trade and instead inflated what was obviously a predetermined and subjectively biased agenda in favor of the standard free trade dogma that has become so prevalent in corporatized American thinking. A must read for those who haven't yet read the typical free trade drivel, but a snoozer for those that have begun to see beyond it.
