In the midst of the growing prominence of international interconnectivity and contradicting attention skewed by misinformation about global impact, this book presents a straightforward, readable commentary on mega trends in globalization by focusing on its history, its present, and its future. The book takes the mystery out of what is happening economically, culturally, and socially around the world. Is globalization the bogeyman, bugbear, and goblin coming out of the dark with the intention of taking our children and ruining our lives? It is the authors’ goal to present a balanced and simple explanation of what is happening around the world and how it affects everyone. The book highlights the constancy of change and examines how we got to where we are today. It encourages thinking about where we’ve been, fosters realistic examination of where we are now, and invites a dialogue on where we can go in the future.
