I've read Friedman's book a couple of times and am a big believer in globalisation. One thing I really picked up from his study was that our world (which used to consist of our town or country) now consists of the entire world. I don't see this as being pessimistic, but we do have to work harder in our global village than we did in our local one. Thanks for the comment. Thanks Francois.
