Global Shift, Third Edition: Transforming the World Economy
Editorial Reviews
Review
"Reflecting the many ways our understanding of globalization has changed and become more sophisticated in recent years, the third edition of Global Shift, like its predecessors, is an invaluable text for both large undergraduate classes and advanced graduate seminars. It takes us beyond pat answers to provide a rich set of interdisciplinary tools and analytical paradigms that help us get a handle on the complex causal forces at work, as well as the vexing tradeoffs concerning globalization's costs and benefits. No other book on the market contains as much information and clear-headed thinking about the global economy." --Gary Gereffi, Department of Sociology, Duke University
"A first-rate and eminently readable work, with a unique blend of empirical and conceptual material and an analytical depth rarely achieved in textbooks. The third edition of Global Shift continues to be one of the most useful, interesting, and readable texts in the field of economic geography. I thoroughly recommend it both to students of geography and to readers in other disciplines who are interested in seeing what contemporary economic geography is really all about." --John Holmes, Department of Geography, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada
